Learning robot-environment interaction with echo state networks (ESNs) is presented in this paper. ESNs are asked to bootstrap a robot’s control policy from human teacher’s dem...
A real-time object tracking and collision avoidance method for mobile robot navigation is presented using stereo vision and a laser sensor. Stereo vision is used to identify the ta...

Vision is an important sensor used for mobile robot navigation. One approach to localization which is based on vision is to compute camera egomotion with respect to base images. W...
Autonomous mobile robots need good models of their environment, sensors and actuators to navigate reliably and efficiently. While this information can be supplied by humans, or le...
Assistive technology is an emerging area, where robotic devices can help individuals with motor disabilities to achieve independence in daily activities. This paper deals with a sy...
