— Coordination of a group of mobile robots is facilitated when they are able to determine their positions relative to each other. Instead of using an absolute positioning approac...
Abstract— Researchers have addressed the localization problem for mobile robots using many different kinds of sensors, including rangefinders, cameras, and odometers. In this pa...

Abstract— A gesture-based interaction framework is presented for controlling mobile robots. This natural interaction paradigm has few physical requirements, and thus can be deplo...
—Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) is one of the major challenges in mobile robotics. Probabilistic techniques using high-end range finding devices are well establishe...
— Localization is a very important problem in robotics and is critical to many tasks performed on a mobile robot. In order to localize well in environments with few landmarks, a ...
