A robust control design is proposed for the lane-keeping and obstacle avoidance of semiautonomous ground vehicles. A robust Model Predictive Controller (MPC) is used in order to enforce safety constraints with minimal control intervention. An uncertain driver model is used to obtain sets of predicted vehicle trajectories in closed-loop with the predicted driver's behavior. The robust MPC computes the smallest corrective steering action needed to keep the driver safe for all predicted trajectories in the set. Simulations of a driver approaching multiple obstacles, with uncertainty obtained from measured data, show the effect of the proposed framework.
