Abstract
In this paper we present a navigation system for a mobile robot that is capable of operating in dynamic environments. Mapbuilding is based on landmark detection, with landmarks being established through a process of self-organisation of the robot´s sensory data. The resultant map can then be used to determine, and subsequently follow, arbitrary paths through the environment. The results of several experiments carried out with a Nomad 200 mobile robot in a dynamic environment are presented
