Research on obstacle avoidance algorithm for unmanned ground vehicle based on multi-sensor information fusion

  • Received: 17 November 2020 Accepted: 23 December 2020 Published: 05 January 2021
  • With the wide application of unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) in a complex environment, the research on the obstacle avoidance system has gradually become an important research part in the field of the UGV system. Aiming at the complex working environment, a sensor detection system mounted on UGV is designed and the kinematic estimation model of UGV is studied. In order to meet the obstacle avoidance requirements of UGVs in a complex environment, a fuzzy neural network obstacle avoidance algorithm based on multi-sensor information fusion is designed in this paper. MATLAB is used to simulate the obstacle avoidance algorithm. By comparing and analyzing the simulation path of UGV's obstacle avoidance motion under the navigation control of fuzzy controller and fuzzy neural network algorithm, the superiority of the proposed fuzzy neural network algorithm was verified. Finally, the superiority and reliability of the obstacle avoidance algorithm are verified through the obstacle avoidance experiment on the UGV experimental platform.
