In order to deploy mobile robots in social environments like indoor buildings, they need to be provided with perceptual abilities to detect people. In the computer vision literatur...
This paper describes the work-in-progress of creating an artificial 3D environment and robot, suitable for educational simulation. A visual 3D vehicle robot, equipped with a monoc...
— Automatically synthesizing behaviors for robots with articulated bodies poses a number of challenges beyond those encountered when generating behaviors for simpler agents. One ...
Each part of a mobile robot has particular aspects of its own, which must be integrated in order to successfully conclude a specific task. Among these parts, sensing enables to co...
