Abstract Coordinating the motion of multiple mobile robots is one of the fundamental problems in robotics. The predominant algorithms for coordinating teams of robots are decoupled...
— Recently, the acquisition of three-dimensional maps has become more and more popular. This is motivated by the fact that robots act in the three-dimensional world and several t...
— Mobile robot localization and navigation requires a map - the robot’s internal representation of the environment. A common problem is that path planning becomes very ineffic...
Recent research in robot exploration and mapping has focused on sampling environmental hotspot fields. This exploration task is formalized by Low, Dolan, and Khosla (2008) in a se...
We describe a mobile robot system, designed to assist residents of an retirement facility. This system is being developed to respond to an aging population and a predicted shortage...
