  • Abstract
    Methods for steering car-like robots with trailers are investigated. A connection is demonstrated between Murray and Sastry´s (1990, 1991) work of steering with integrally related sinusoids and Sussmann and Liu´s (1991) recent work on asymptotic behavior of systems with high-frequency sinusoids as inputs. The merits of coordinate transformations, relative to the convergence properties, are discussed. Simulation results for a car-like robot with two trailers are presented
