SemGeoNav:A Safety-Guided Visual Navigation Approach with Semantic Reasoning and Geometric Planning

2026-06-15 · Yu Liu, Zongyang Chen, Yan Guo, Chao Liu, Xianfei Pan arxiv

Learning-based visual navigation has enhanced semantic goal-reaching capabilities. However, due to their black-box nature, purely end-to-end models often lack explicit geometric constraints, leading to unpredictable and unreliable obstacle avoidance in open environments. Conversely, traditional geometric planners ensure safety but struggle with high-dimensional visual targets. To address these limitations, we propose SemGeoNav, a novel hierarchical visual navigation framework.It tightly integrates the high-level semantic reasoning of end-to-end models with the reliable local planning ability of geometry-based methods, achieving robust image-based navigation while significantly improving obstacle avoidance. Furthermore, we introduce a temporal trajectory smoothing mechanism to ensure continuous and stable robot motion. We evaluated SemGeoNav on a Unitree Go2 quadruped robot in real-world environments. The results demonstrate that SemGeoNav outperforms existing representative methods, including ViNT and NoMaD, achieving higher success rates and shorter navigation times.
