ART-TEB: Adaptive Trajectory Planning for Mobile Robots in Cluttered Environments

arXiv:2510.26142v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Trajectory planning for mobile robots remains a major challenge, particularly in cluttered environments, where existing planning algorithms often fail or produce suboptimal paths. To address this issue, we propose an adaptive trajectory refinement algorithm, ART-TEB, comprising two main stages. First, to ensure safety at the path-segment level, a segment-wise conservative collision test is applied, recursively subdividing risky path segments until the collision risk is eliminated. Second, to guarantee pose-level safety, pose correction based on separation direction and line search is applied, ensuring that each pose in the trajectory is collision-free and maximally clear from obstacles. Simulation results demonstrate that the ART-TEB achieves up to 3.12x higher success rates and up to 23.7x faster average planning times than state-of-the-art approaches. Furthermore, real-world experiments confirm that the robot can safely pass through highly constrained environments while maintaining rapid planning performance.
