According to a prediction of the evolution of the robot from the current state, a discrete-time device called {em Path Governor} (PG) generates on line a suitable time-parameterization of the path to be tracked, by solving at fixed intervals a constrained scalar optimization problem. Higher level switching commands are also taken into account by simply associating a different optimization criterion to each mode of operation.
