— Localization for low cost humanoid or animal-like personal robots has to rely on cheap sensors and has to be robust to user manipulations of the robot. We present a visual loca...
Abstract— This paper considers two approaches to the problem of vision and self-localization on a mobile robot. In the first approach, the perceptual processing is primarily bot...
— This paper proposes the new robot programming environment in which robot motion programming environment and dynamics simulator are integrated. This allows robot motion programs...
— This paper presents a technique to improve the data association in the Iterative Closest Point [2] based scan matching. The method is based on a distance-filter constructed on...
— This paper describes a probabilistic framework for navigation using only appearance data. By learning a generative model of appearance, we can compute not only the similarity o...
