— Mobile robots have to detect and handle a variety of potential hazards to navigate autonomously. We present a real-time stereo vision based mapping algorithm for identifying an...
We present a novel geometric model for robot mapping suited for robots equipped with a laser range finder. The geometric representation is based on shape. Cyclic ordered sets of p...
