— We present a novel approach to mobile robot navigation that enables navigation in outdoor environments without GPS. The approach uses a path planner that calculates optimal pat...
—We present a navigation function through which a group of mobile agents can be coordinated to achieve a particular formation, both in terms of shape and orientation, while avoid...
— In robotics, vertical lines have been always very useful for autonomous robot localization and navigation in structured environments. This paper presents a robust method for ma...
— We present algorithms to detect and precisely localize curbs and stairways for autonomous navigation. These algorithms combine brightness information (in the form of edgels) wi...
We consider the problem of autonomous navigation in unstructured outdoor terrains using vision sensors. The goal is for a robot to come into a new environment, map it and move to ...
