— 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...
— In this video, we demonstrate the effectiveness of a kinodynamic planning strategy that allows a high-impedance quadruped to operate across a variety of rough terrain. At one e...
— We present a topological navigation system that is able to visually recognize the different rooms of an apartment and guide a robot between them. Specifically tailored for sma...
