— We describe a framework for finding and tracking “trails” for autonomous outdoor robot navigation. Through a combination of visual cues and ladar-derived structural inform...
— An important problem in robotics is planning and selecting actions for goal-directed behavior in noisy uncertain environments. The problem is typically addressed within the fra...
— This paper describes the design and testing of a technique to enable long-range autonomous navigation using a stereo camera as the only sensor. During a learning phase, the rov...
The ability of finding its situation in a given environment is crucial for an autonomous agent. While navigating through a space, a mobile robot must be capable of finding its lo...
