            Abstract : 
A solution to the problem of controlling a car-like nonholonomic robot is proposed using a “virtual” vehicle approach, which is shown to be robust with respect to errors and disturbances. The proposed algorithms are model independent, and the stability analysis is done using a dynamical model in which, for instance, the side slip angles are taken into account
