Title	Computer Simulation of a Biomimetic Law for Tracking Hidden Structures
Authors	V. Y. Chebotareva¹ ¹Sirius University of Science and Technology
Annotation	The article presents the results of computer simulations of an algorithm inspired by biological systems. A mobile robot of the Dubins-car type moves on a flat surface with an unknown scalar field. The robot is equipped with two sensors that measure the field values at their current positions. The algorithm directs the robot to the points of maximum field values, and in the case where a curve of maximum values is formed, the robot is capable of following this curve. The article includes the results of computer simulations of this method, confirming the robot’s ability to track the structure without gradient estimation.
Keywords	mobile robot, autonomous navigation, computer simulation, curve tracking.
