AN ALGORITHM FOR COLLISION AVOIDANCE FOR ROBOTS WITH WORK ING SPACE

In this paper an algorithm is presented which serves for collision avoidance between robots with working space. The method is based on the concept of a hierarchical coordinator and permits an on-line application. Computing possible collision points a collision_free trajectory for the robot with no right_of_way precedence is generated. The computations are based on the states of the robots concerned including their practicable accelerations and velocities.
