Recent research in multi-robot exploration and mapping has focused on sampling environmental fields, which are typically modeled using the Gaussian process (GP). Existing informa...
— We propose a 3D obstacle avoidance method for mobile robots. Besides the robot’s 2D laser range finder, a Timeof-Flight camera is used to perceive obstacles that are not in ...
Abstract— We study the problem of designing motionplanning and sensor assignment strategies for tracking multiple targets with a mobile sensor network. We focus on triangulation ...
A new approach called bioinspired engineering of exploration systems (BEES) and its value for solving pressing NASA and DoD needs are described. Insects (for example honeybees and ...
