Abstract
In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a unique proportional whisker sensor and our general behaviour based software architecture. The architecture for behaviour based agents is used to realise purposive mobile robot navigation in a cluttered indoor environment. The whisker was developed specifically to meet the requirements of high speed and close wall following. We also discuss the specific architecture we have constructed
