— Minimum distance localization is the problem of finding the shortest possible path for a robot to eliminate ambiguity regarding its position in the environment. We consider th...
We present a navigation algorithm, which integrates virtual obstacle concept with a potential-field-based method to maneuver cylindrical mobile robots in unknown or unstructured e...
