Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly deployed in complex environments for various applications, necessitating advanced obstacle avoidance capabilities to ensure safety and mission success. Inspired by the simplicity and effectiveness of biological navigation strategies, this study introduces a novel approach to UAV obstacle avoidance, leveraging the principles of the bug algorithm combined with the predictive power of neural networks. We propose a hybrid model that integrates a lightweight neural network to predict potential collisions in real-time. Our methodology employs a two-stage process: first, the neural network assesses the immediate risk of collision; second, the bug algorithm-inspired decision-making process determines the UAV’s maneuvering actions to navigate without crashing to obstacles. The approach was tested both in simulation and real outdoor experiments.
