The paper presents a general framework for concurrent navigation and exploration of unknown environments based on discrete potential fields that guide the robot motion. These poten...
: Several species of animals use whiskers to accurately navigate and explore objects in the absence of vision. We have developed inexpensive arrays of artificial whiskers based on ...

In this paper we introduce coverage maps as a new way of representing the environment of a mobile robot. Coverage maps store for each cell of a given grid a posterior about the am...
In this paper we describe MRSCL Geometry a collaborative educational activity that explores the use of robotic technology and wirelessly connected Pocket PCs as tools for teaching ...
— This paper presents a vision-based approach to SLAM in large-scale environments with minimal sensing and computational requirements. The approach is based on a graphical repres...
