— This paper presents a method to determine the rough shape of an object. This is a step in the development of a ”One Click Grasping Tool”, a grasping tool of everyday-life o...
— The spiders’ ability of walking and climbing on different surfaces and in different conditions is taken into account in this paper in order to define and study a suitable sp...
—We present a novel particle filter implementation for estimating the pose of tags in the environment with respect to an RFID-equipped robot. This particle filter combines sign...

Abstract— The presence of an area with low visibility conditions is a relevant information for autonomous vehicle as far as environment sensing is important regarding safety. In ...
— Legged robots require accurate models of their environment in order to plan and execute paths. We present a probabilistic technique based on Gaussian processes that allows terr...
