This paper concerns the exploration of a natural environment by a mobile robot equipped with both a video color camera and a stereo-vision system. We focus on the interest of such ...
In this paper we present a dynamic data structure, useful for robot navigation in an unknown, simplyconnected planar environment. The guiding philosophy in this work is to avoid t...
— The creation of a robot capable of navigating in unknown urban environments without the use of GPS data or prior map knowledge is envisioned in the Autonomous City Explorer (AC...
This paper describes a multi-loop, modular navigation architecture for mobile robots whose structure allows the execution of most types of navigation tasks in a highly robust mann...
This paper investigates safe and efficient map-building strategies for a mobile robot with imperfect control and sensing. In the implementation, a robot equipped with a range sens...
