Visual navigation and obstacle avoidance using a steering potential function
Humans have a remarkable ability to navigate using only vision, but mobile robots have not been nearly as successful. We propose a new approach to vision-guided local navigation, ...

A synthetic-vision based steering approach for crowd simulation
In the everyday exercise of controlling their locomotion, humans rely on their optic flow of the perceived environment to achieve collision-free navigation. In crowds, in spite o...

Switched UAV-UGV Cooperation Scheme for Target Detection
— We develop a switched cooperative control scheme, to coordinate groups of ground and aerial vehicles for the purpose of locating a moving target in a given area. We do so by st...
