trol. But first, chapter 6 addresses two skills that a competent, navigating robot usually must
demonstrate: obstacle avoidance and path planning.
There is far more to know about the cross-disciplinary field of mobile robotics than can
be contained in a single book. We hope, though, that this broad introduction will place the
reader in the context of mobile robotics’ collective wisdom. This is only the beginning, but,
with luck, the first robot you program or build will have only good things to say about you.
