Using rat navigation models to learn orientation from visual input on a mobile robot
Rodents possess extraordinary navigation abilities that are far in excess of what current state-of-the-art robot agents are capable of. This paper describes research that is part ...

Autonomous networked robots for the establishment of wireless communication in uncertain emergency response scenarios
During a disaster, emergency response operations can benefit from the establishment of a wireless ad hoc network. We propose the use of autonomous robots that move inside a disas...
