Abstract— Mobile robots rely on the ability to sense the geometry of their local environment in order to avoid obstacles or to explore the surroundings. For this task, dedicated ...

— This paper presents a metric-based matching algorithm to estimate the robot planar displacement by matching dense two-dimensional range scans. The contribution is a geometric d...
Abstract— For ground vehicle localization, hybrid-GNSS localizers now use commonly dead-reckoning sensors, like odometers or inertial units. They are designed to increase the acc...
Active cameras provide a mobile robot with the capability to fixate and track features over a wide field of view. However, their use emphasises serial attention focussing on a succ...
We present an application of hierarchical Bayesian estimation to robot map building. The revisiting problem occurs when a robot has to decide whether it is seeing a previously-bui...
