Low Cost Obstacle Avoidance Robot

Abstract

This paper deals with a low cost solution to obstacle<br>avoidance for a mobile robot. This paper also presents a dynamic<br>steering algorithm which ensures that the robot doesn't have to<br>stop in front of an obstacle which allows robot to navigate<br>smoothly in an unknown environment, avoiding collisions. The<br>obstacle avoidance strategy has been described. Obstacle<br>avoidance strategy and working of robot is greatly dependent on<br>the detection of obstacles by sensors and corresponding response<br>of robot. Working principle of sensors, limitation of their use and<br>obstacle avoidance algorithm has been discussed in detai
