Obstacle Detection in Smooth High Curvature Terrain
Detection of obstacles for autonomous vehicles is more difficult when the terrain is not locally planar and remains an open problem. We have developed an approach suited for obsta...

Smooth Feedback for Car-Like Vehicles in Polygonal Environments
— We introduce a method for constructing provably safe smooth feedback laws for car-like robots in obstaclecluttered polygonal environments. The robot is taken to be a point with...
