To be useful as a mobility assistant for a human driver, an intelligent robotic wheelchair must be able to distinguish between safe and hazardous regions in its immediate environm...
A key component of a mobile robot system is the ability to localize itself accurately and, simultaneously, to build a map of the environment. Most of the existing algorithms are b...
— We describe a method for an autonomous robot to efficiently locate one or more distinct objects in a realistic environment using monocular vision. We demonstrate how to effic...
—This article describes a rigorous and complete framework for the simultaneous localization and map building problem for mobile robots: the symmetries and perturbations map (SPma...
