The article presents a navigation system that utilizes a semantic map created on a hexagonal grid. The system plans the path by incorporating semantic and metric information while considering the vehicle’s dynamic constraints. The article concludes by discussing a low-level control algorithm used in the system. This solution’s advantages include using a semantic map on a hexagonal grid, which enables more efficient and accurate navigation. Creating a map of allowable speeds based on the semantic map provides an additional layer of information that can help optimize the vehicle’s trajectory. Incorporating both semantic and metric information in the path-planning process leads to a more precise and tailored navigation solution that accounts for the vehicle’s capabilities and the environment it is operating in. Finally, the low-level control algorithm ensures that the vehicle follows the planned trajectory while considering real-time sensor data and other factors affecting its movement. Through this article, we aim to provide insights into the cutting-edge advancements in path planning techniques and shed light on the potential of combining hexagonal grids, vehicle dynamics constraints, and semantic awareness. These innovations have the potential to revolutionize autonomous navigation systems, enabling vehicles to navigate complex environments with greater efficiency, safety, and adaptability.
The article concerns the most important issues of designing an unmanned vehicle for the implementation of observation tasks in the protection of the perimeter of the state border. An analysis of the terrain conditions necessary for the unmanned vehicle to overcome and a description of the key components of the HUNTeR vehicle responsible for the ability to work in such conditions was presented. Also included were tests verifying the basic assumptions of the project in the field of operation at the maximum speed of travel.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
