In this paper, cognitive radar will be shown capable of providing the guidance and control instructions required to enable a robotic vehicle to successfully traverse an aperture. The cognitive radar proposed relies on a perception-action cycle in which echoic flow is the perception and steering instructions are the actions. A series of experiments using a robot vehicle equipped with an ultrasound radar are used to demonstrate that the resulting guidance and control system is able to traverse apertures in a variety of real situations.
