The interaction of an autonomous mobile robot with the real world critically depends on the robots morphology and on its environment. Building a model of these aspects is extremel...
There is a sustained trend to embed computer systems in all kinds of intelligent products. Increasing emphasis is given to enhance the functionality of such systems beyond the pro...
This paper addresses the problem of outdoor terrain modeling for the purposes of mobile robot navigation. We propose an approach in which a robot acquires a set of terrain models ...
We postulate that multi-wheel statically-stable mobile robots for operation in human environments are an evolutionarydead end. Robots of this class tall enough to interact meaning...
— To effectively navigate in their environments and accurately reach their target locations, mobile robots require a globally consistent map of the environment. The problem of le...
