| Abstract | Path planning for autonomous robots is an essential capacity for these systems. One class of path planning algorithms use potential fields. However, some problems associated with these algorithms include (1) Trapping due to local minima, (2) No passage between closely spaced obstacles, and (3) Limit cycles. This paper presents a potential-field-based algorithm that does not exhibit the mentioned problems. The algorithm uses a two- part approach. The first part of the approach generates a "velocity map" of the environment that represents the admissible velocity at discrete cells in the workspace. This velocity map of the environment gives a grey scale that is darker near the obstacles and walls (black means zero speed) and more clear far from them (white means a predefined maximum robot speed). This velocity map imitates the repulsive electric potential from walls and obstacles, but with a limited maximum value. In the second step, the application of the Fast Marching method on the velocity map, represents and gives a potential map of the wave propagation with time as last axis. The propagation of this wave uses the previous velocity map. In this potential surface it is calculated the shortest time trajectory, by using the gradient method. The second part of the approach uses concepts of wave propagation to construct a smooth, safe, and time efficient path in the velocity map. This method is very fast, and can be used on line. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
