Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to design a mobile robot controller which is able to pursue a given goal with obstacle‐avoiding capability in which the two tasks, i.e. aiming at the goal and avoiding obstacles, are fused together in a coherent framework of look‐ahead control method.Design/methodology/approach – Navigation toward a goal is typically executed based on global information obtained from GPS. Obstacle avoidance, however, is local in nature, and a higher priority temporarily should be placed on avoiding a collision with the obstacle than taking the shortest path toward the goal. The former is handled by the goal‐aiming mode while the latter is dealt with by the obstacle‐avoiding mode. These two tasks with different natures are treated under so‐called “look‐ahead control” by simply changing coordinate frames and associated elements within the same controller. Therefore, continuity and smoothness of the resulting motion and trajectory is maintained throughout its mission.Findings – Two diff...
