SUMMARY:Late Breaking Results: Tiny Brain, Big World: Autonomous MCU-Frien
 dly Navigation for Mapless Dynamic Environments
DESCRIPTION:Omer Kurkutlu and Arman Roohi (University of Illinois Chicago)
 \n\nWe present a lightweight, mapless path-planning framework for resource
 -constrained robots operating in dynamic environments. The method incremen
 tally builds small local maps from onboard sensors, selects intermediate s
 ubgoals, and applies A* planning only within these local regions to naviga
 te step-by-step toward the goal, ensuring constant memory and bounded comp
 utation. Deployed on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Rev2, the framework achieves p
 er-step planning in 1.3--10.6~ms using 88~kB flash and 205~kB RAM, outperf
 orming reactive and incremental baselines that fail under identical condit
 ions.\n\nTrack: Student\n\n
