            Abstract : 
In this paper a neural identification approach is used to estimate the parameters of a mobile robot with nonholonomic constraints. Then an inverse optimal control is designed for its control. In order to take in account the environment of the robot, a monocular visual sensor is mounted on the robot to estimate the velocities for the controller. Simulations results show the effectiveness of the proposed neural controller.
