| description | This paper introduces a new methodology for escaping from local minima using an actual-virtual target switching strategy. In particular, this approach proposes suitable steps to detect trap situations and guide the robot away from local minima even when the environment is completely unknown. In this work the navigation system consists of two layers. In the low-level layer, a Nearest Virtual Target (NVT) approach is adapted as a reactive collision avoidance method for mobile robot navigation to achieve collision free motion in cluttered, dense and troublesome scenarios. Where the robot is surrounded by obstacles and a trap situation is likely to occur, the high-level layer becomes responsible to plan a path to pull the robot out of the trap. Finally, the performance of the proposed approach is validated by simulation results. |
