Autonomous navigation using point clouds

Hey guys,

I am trying to use point clouds for autonomous navigation around our lab and for obstacle avoidance. Till now i am able to do plane segmentation of point clouds using pcl, ,so i can find point on plane to navigate. But i don't know how to make the robot move after segmenting the point clouds? And ideas how i can do it?
