Path planning of mobile robots in complex environments is the most challenging research. A hybrid approach combining the enhanced ant colony system with the local optimization algorithm based on path geometric features, called EACSPGO, has been presented in this study for mobile robot path planning. Firstly, the simplified model of pheromone diffusion, the pheromone initialization strategy of unequal allocation, and the adaptive pheromone update mechanism have been simultaneously introduced to enhance the classical ant colony algorithm, thus providing a significant improvement in the computation efficiency and the quality of the solutions. A local optimization method based on path geometric features has been designed to further optimize the initial path and achieve a good convergence rate. Finally, the performance and advantages of the proposed approach have been verified by a series of tests in the mobile robot path planning. The simulation results demonstrate that the presented EACSPGO approach provides better solutions, adaptability, stability, and faster convergence rate compared to the other tested optimization algorithms.
