Heuristic Algorithm for Cooperative Motion Planning & Controlling of Unmanned Surface Vehicles

Abstract

Abstract From the past decades autonomous technology is growing significantly in all applications. In Marine applications, Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV’s) is emerging research technology. For this research mobile robotics motion, path planning technologies are adopted and extended. The objective of this paper finds out the shortest route and Collision free path between the two points at the dynamic environment in moving time using the proposed modified A* algorithm. The simulation of the proposed algorithm is using python - OpenCV.
