In this paper, a concept for virtual sensors is proposed for efficient avoidance of obstacles during the motion of robots. The virtual sensor yields new data by combining encoder values and real distance data, and derives new sensor data that includes the mobility of the robot. Simulation on Windows XP is executed to illustrate the proposed approach with actually acquired distance from virtual and actual sensors. To facilitate comparison with the alternative results developed in this paper, we refer to the conventional artificial potential field method using actual distance. Data from virtual sensors show smoother and safer motion in obstacle avoidance traces in regards to obstacle and robot mobility.
