Motivated by potential efficiency and robustness gains, there is growing interest in the use of multiple robots for coverage. In coverage, robots visit every point in a target are...
Task planning for mobile robots usually relies solely on spatial information and on shallow domain knowledge, like labels attached to objects and places. Although spatial informat...
In this paper, a nonlinear controller design for an omni-directional mobile robot is presented. The robot controller consists of an outer-loop (kinematics) controller and an inner...

In this paper we present the robot programming and planning language Readylog, a Golog dialect which was developed to support the decision making of robots acting in dynamic real-...
In a multi-robotic system, robots interact with each other in a dynamically changing environment. The robots need to be intelligent both at the individual and group levels. In thi...
Autonomous mobile robots form an important research topic in the field of robotics due to their near-term applicability in the real world as domestic service robots. These robots ...
