中文摘要：

为了提高机器人避障算法开发效率，设计了一种基于Matlab的机器人避障算法设计与试验仿真软件。该软件分为用户图形界面、避障算法系统模型两大部分。其中用户图形界面是基于Matlab 图形用户界面（ GUI）实现的，能够实现参数设置、结果展示等功能，给用户提供了一个操作及管理平台；避障算法系统模型是本软件实现的关键，包括探测传感器模拟和机器人运动模拟，其通过Matlab语言编程和Simulink模块组建实现。全面阐述了仿真软件的系统建模、软件编程和用户图形界面设计，并对仿真软件实现所采用的关键技术进行了详细说明。仿真实例表明，该软件运行平稳，能清晰直观地展现机器人的避障过程。

英文摘要：

A Matlab based simulator was designed in order to improve the efficiency. The simulator includes two parts, the first part is a user interface for manipulation and supervision which is established based on Matlab/GUI, the second part is the key of this software established through Matlab programming and Simulink modeling, including the simulation of range-sensor and mobile robot. The system modeling, software programming and the designing of the user interface were presented and the key techniques used to realize the software were described. Experimental result shows the effectiveness of the above simulator.
