— In this paper we address the joint problems of automated data acquisition and view planning for large–scale indoor and outdoor sites. Our method proceeds in two distinct stag...
— Tracked vehicles have the advantage of stable locomotion on uneven terrain, and, as a result, such mechanisms are used for locomotion on outdoor robots, including those used fo...
— We present an algorithm for underwater robots to track mobile targets, and specifically human divers, by detecting periodic motion. Periodic motion is typically associated wit...
