Abstract :
This paper deals with the motion planning problem and the localization problem of mobile robots evolving in partially known or unknown environments. We describe a biologically-plausible approach of these problems based on the definition of virtual top view images, obtained by the transformation of real frontal images (visual images or proximetric images).
