The effectiveness and clinical benefits of image guided surgery are
well established for procedures where there is manageable tissue motion. In
minimally invasive cardiac, gastro...
We describe a Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) method for a hovering underwater vehicle that will explore underwater caves and tunnels, a true three dimensional (3D) e...

This article present results for building accurate 3-D maps of urban environments with a mobile Segway RMP. The goal of this project is to use robotic systems to rapidly acquire 3-...
SLAM algorithms based on local maps have been demonstrated to be well suited for mapping large environments as they reduce the computational cost and improve the consistency of the...
— This paper describes a 3D SLAM system using information from an actuated laser scanner and camera installed on a mobile robot.The laser samples the local geometry of the enviro...
