Let \(\ell\) and k be a pair of positive numbers. Denote by \(\Gamma^ n_{\ell,k}\) the set of twice differentiable smooth curves \(\gamma \in {\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}\) such that the length of the curve \(\gamma\) does not exceed \(\ell\) and the curvature of \(\gamma\) does not exceed k at the point of \(\gamma\cap K\neq \emptyset\) for some fixed compact set K in \({\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}\). The authoress gives bounds from above and below on the entropy of the space \(\Gamma^ n_{\ell,k}\) in the Hausdorff metric.
