Abstract

The path planning problem of an Unmanned Ground Vehicle in a predefined structured environment is dealt in this paper. Here the environment chosen as the roadmap of NIT Rourkela obtained from Google maps as reference. An Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV) is developed and programmed so as to move autonomously from an indicated source location to the defined destination in the given map following the most optimal path. An algorithm based on linear search is implemented to the autonomous robot to generate shortest paths in the environment. The developed algorithm is verified with the simulations as well as in experimental environments.
