Abstract--We evaluate a technique that uses an embedded network deployed pervasively throughout an environment to aid robots in navigation. The embedded nodes do not know their abs...

This paper presents a novel algorithm for 3D depth estimation using a particle filter (PFDE - Particle Filter Depth Estimation) in a monocular vSLAM (Visual Simultaneous Localiza...
This paper prescribes an incremental procedure to construct roadmaps of unknown environments. Recall that a roadmap is a geometric structure that a robot uses to plan a path betwe...

― Self-assembly systems in space are arguably within the reach of today’s technology based on the research and development of self-reconfigurable robots on earth. This paper pr...
In this work, a Modified Vector Field Histogram (MVFH) has been developed to improve path planning and obstacle avoidance for a wheeled driven mobile robot. It permits the detecti...
