  • Abstract
    This work presents a navigation method for a nonholonomic robot. The robot is used as a walking assistant with a person following to a specific target. During motion the user may modify the path computed by the robot. The method is based on a new model of "elastic bands" considering the requirements of a car-like robot moving only forward (Dubin\´s model).
