The capability of maintaining the pose of the mobile robot is central for basic navigation and map building tasks. In this paper we describe a vision-based hybrid localization sch...
— In this paper, we present an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF)-based algorithm for real-time vision-aided inertial navigation. The primary contribution of this work is the derivatio...
In this paper we present a novel approach to mobile robot navigation in natural unstructured environments. Natural scenes can be considered as random fields where a large number ...
— In order to be truly autonomous, robots that operate in natural, populated environments must have the ability to create a model of these unpredictable dynamic environments and ...
Robust navigation through rocky terrain by small mobile robots is important for maximizing science return from upcoming missions to Mars. We are addressing this problem at multipl...
