  • Abstract
    An approach to addressing the problem of local path planning given acceleration constraints is presented. The concept of safety is introduced to design a planning strategy. A path which maximizes the product of safety based on local information, and attraction towards the goal, is chosen. The safety function depends on the acceleration bounds. The attraction towards the goal depends on the distance from the goal. The safety optimizing path planning technique resembles real life behavior.<>
