Abstract
A method for navigating a robot through a limited space includes: obtaining a planned first path for the robot to reach a target position; calculating curvature and/or normal vectors of points in the first path; according to the curvature and a preset curvature threshold, and/or according to the normal vectors and a preset normal vector change threshold, obtaining a first straight path for the robot outside the limited space by curve fitting; determining an intersection of a centerline of the limited space and the first straight path, and determining a second straight path for the robot to move through the limited space according to the centerline and the intersection; and generating a second path for the robot to move through the limited space based on the first straight path and the second straight path, and navigating the robot to move through the limited space according to the second path.
