— In the last decades, tremendous progress has been made in the field of autonomous indoor navigation for mobile robots. However, these approaches assume the structural part of ...
—The fields of autonomous robotics and ambient intelligence are converging toward the vision of smart robotic environments, in which tasks are performed via the cooperation of m...
Research on mobile robot navigation has produced two major paradigms for mapping indoorenvironments: grid-based and topological. While grid-based methods produce accurate metric m...
This paper describes a working stereo-vision-based mobile robot that can navigate and autonomously explore its environment safely while building occupancy grid maps of the environ...
—Though the final goal of mobile robot navigation is to be autonomous, operators’ intelligent and skillful decisions are necessary when there are many scattered obstacles. Ther...
