Abstract

Path planning is a critical component in autonomous robotic navigation, enabling a robot to determine the most efficient route between two points while avoiding obstacles. This study presents the implementation of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)-based path planning algorithm on a three-wheeled omniwheel service robot, emphasizing adaptive and efficient motion control in complex indoor environments. Unlike conventional algorithms such as A* or Dijkstra, which often struggle with computational efficiency and local minima, the proposed PSO approach dynamically explores the search space to identify globally optimal paths with smoother trajectories. Various population and iteration settings were tested to analyze performance trade-offs between path length, obstacle clearance, and computation time. The optimal configuration—50 particles and 400 iterations—achieved a minimum path length of 4.49 meters with efficient obstacle avoidance and stable convergence. These results validate PSO’s capability for generating safe and near-optimal paths in real time, demonstrating its potential for deployment in real-world service robots operating in hospitals, offices, and public facilities.
