A methodology for the generation of the 2-D map from unknown navigation environment by traveling a short distance

A technique for generation of a 2-D space map by traveling a short distance is described. The space to be mapped can be classified as: (1) space without obstacles, (2) space with stationary obstacles, and (3) space with moving obstacles. This paper presents the methodology used to generate a 2-D map of an unknown navigation space. The ability to minimize the redundancy during traveling and maximize the confidence function for generation of the map are advantages of this technique.
