We describe an automated scene modeling system that consists of two components operating in an interleaved fashion: an incremental modeler that builds solid models from range imag...
Abstract— Tactile telepresence has been expected to be technology which encourages operators of robotic systems to remotely maneuver objects or recognize materials being touched ...
This paper describes methods for segmenting planar surfaces from noisy 3D data obtained from correlation stereo vision. We make use of local planar surface elements called patchle...
We propose a novel combination of techniques for robustly estimating the position of a mobile robot in outdoor environments using range data. Our approach applies a particle filte...
— The paper presents a thought experiment as to the feasibility of using large scale wireless sensor networks as a vehicle for high level scientific investigation. The discussion...
