Escape strategy for a mobile robot under pursuit

We are addressing here the problem of dynamic interactions between vision-guided mobile robots. We propose here to represent the information about the dynamic capabilities of a robot by a geometric object that we call the dynamic map (DM). We show how the DM can be generated from a dynamic model of a robot and provide an example in the case of a simple car-like vehicle. Finally, a simple planning strategy using this DM is presented.
