Different Nature-Inspired Techniques Applied for Motion Planning of Wheeled Robot: A Critical Review

Motion planning is one of the most important parts when we design any wheeled or walking robots. The meaning of motion planning is to plan a path from start point to goal point between obstacles in any working environment. Many techniques have applied by researchers from last two-three decades for wheeled robot motion planning. This article presents a critical review on motion planning of wheeled robot by using different nature-inspired techniques like evolutionary algorithm and swarm-based optimization algorithm.
