Navigation

Navigation in robotics involves enabling robots to move through and interact with their environment.

• Path Planning: Path Planning is the process of determining the optimal path for a robot to navigate from its current location to a goal location, considering obstacles and constraints.

• Localization: Localization is the process of determining a robot's position in its environment. It often involves using sensor data and mapping information to estimate the robot's location accurately.

• Mapping: Mapping in robotics involves creating and updating a representation of the environment. It helps robots build a cognitive understanding of the space they navigate.

• Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM): SLAM involves a robot navigating in an unknown environment, simultaneously mapping the surroundings, and determining its own location within that space.

• Collision Avoidance: Collision Avoidance involves implementing strategies to prevent robots from colliding with obstacles in their environment. This is crucial for ensuring safe and efficient navigation.
