This paper describes the foundations and algorithms of a new probabilistic roadmap (PRM) planner that is: (1) singlequery –i.e., it does not pre-compute a roadmap, but uses the ...
Two stereo vision-based mobile robots navigate and autonomously explore their environment safely while building occupancy grid maps of the environment. A novel landmark recognitio...
This paper explores a user interface technique which augments an immersive head tracked display with a hand-held miniature copy of the virtual environment. We call this interface ...
— The dangerous and time sensitive nature of a disaster area makes it an ideal application for robotic exploration. Our long term goal is to enable humans, software agents, and a...
