Terrain-Aware Local Path Planning with Global DEM Data Integration for Autonomous UGV Navigation
This work proposes a hybrid framework that integrates low-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data with real-time LiDAR-based obstacle detection and terrain analysis for efficient path planning and supports robust real-time adaptation, paving the way for more reliable autonomous navigation in dynamic outdoor envir...
