Navigation in dynamic environments is a crucial challenge for robotics and autonomous systems, demanding robust ways of dealing with issues beyond the classical area of pathfinding. This paper proposes a novel approach for obstacle prediction in grid-based settings by employing Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. Our LSTM model, trained on time series, does not only predict the presence but also the evolution of obstacles. This predictive potential allows much safer and more efficient path planning-prediction that will make the vehicle adapt to the routes well before the obstacles become a clear menace, hence reducing the number of path recalculations and keeping operation smooth. Ours being a developed method married to Dijkstra’s algorithm, it minimizes obstacle encounters and, therefore, produces a safer operating margin and improved operability-far from traditional reactionary techniques. Further, LbSC ensures stability and adaptability for a randomly varying scenario, thus enhancing autonomous decision-making and reducing human intervention. We validated the efficiency of our approach in improving the navigational accuracy and robustness through simulation, which highly enhanced system autonomy and safety in unpredictable environments. These are significant results as they give an example of the critical advantages that predictive modeling has on autonomous navigation: substantial improvements in safety and efficiency that are pertinent to real-world applications. Our findings emphasize the benefits of predictive modeling in autonomous navigation: It makes the whole process safe, efficient, and smooth in scaling up to a broad spectrum of real-world applications.
