—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...
In this paper, we describe a prototype interface that facilitates the control of a mobile robot team by a single operator, using a sketch interface on a Tablet PC. The user draws a...

Localization is the process of determining the robot's location within its environment. More precisely, it is a procedure which takes as input a geometric map, a current estim...
Abstract. The connectivity of the con guration space has been a valuable concept in the motion planning for single robots in both known and unknown terrains. We show here that n-co...
We combine a "hybrid" force/position control scheme with a potential field approach into a novel method for collision recovery and navigation in unknown environments. It...
