— In order to create consistent maps of unknown environments, a robot must be able to recognize when it has returned to a previously visited place. In this paper, we introduce an...
Abstract. A basic task of rescue robot systems is mapping of the environment. Localizing injured persons, guiding rescue workers and excavation equipment requires a precise 3D map ...
Abstract— Randomized motion planning techniques are responsible for many of the recent successes in robot control. However, most motion planning algorithms assume perfect and com...
We propose a novel method for multi-robot plan adaptation which can be used for adapting existing spatial plans of robotic teams to new environments or imitating collaborative spat...
In this paper, we investigate the use of high resolution aerial LADAR data for autonomous mobile robot navigation in natural environments. The use of prior maps from aerial LADAR ...
