Learning Predictions of the Load-Bearing Surface for Autonomous Rough-Terrain Navigation in Vegetation
Current methods for off-road navigation using vehicle and terrain models to predict future vehicle response are limited by the accuracy of the models they use and can suffer if th...

A Robust Docking Strategy for a Mobile Robot using Flow Field Divergence
— We present a robust strategy for docking a mobile robot in close proximity with an upright surface using optical flow field divergence. Unlike previous approaches, we achieve...
