With the current progress in robot technology and related areas, sophisticated moving and sensing capabilities are at hand to design robots capable of solving seemingly complex tas...
Abstract. We investigate the online exploration problem of a shortsighted mobile robot moving in an unknown cellular room without obstacles. The robot has a very limited sensor; it...

We consider problems of geometric exploration and selfdeployment for simple robots that can only sense the combinatorial (non-metric) features of their surroundings. Even with suc...
— This paper defines and analyzes a simple robot with local sensors that moves in an unknown polygonal environment. The robot can execute wall-following motions and can traverse...
Abstract. We consider the problem of counting the number of indistinguishable targets using a simple binary sensing model. Our setting includes an unknown number of point targets i...
