As is well-known, this is due to exponential growth in the state space with the addition of each new problem variable. Furthermore, such an approach is overly conservative because most configurations will not be reached in typical runs. Rather than entirely abandon the discrete game view, we propose a combined method that ensures exact satisfaction of a given specification, expressed in linear temporal logic, while providing a lower bound on robot-obstacle distance throughout execution. Our method avoids explicit encoding of the moving obstacle and thus substantially reduces the reactive synthesis problem size, while allowing other nondeterministic variables to still be included in the specification. Our approaches centers on modeling obstacle motion as changes in the presence of a virtual static obstacle, and performing incremental synthesis in response. The algorithm is tested in application to a planar surveillance task. Scott C. Livingston and Richard M.
