— To operate outdoors or on non-flat surfaces, mobile robots need appropriate data structures that provide a compact representation of the environment and at the same time suppo...
— This paper presents a self-localization strategy for a team of heterogenous mobile robots, including ground mobile robots of various sizes and wall-climbing robots. These robot...
– Mobile robots operating in home environments must deal with constrained space and a great variety of obstacles and situations to handle. This article presents a pilot study aim...
— We present a new approach for odour detection and recognition based on a so-called PEIS-Ecology: a network of gas sensors and a mobile robot are integrated in an intelligent en...
– Mobile robots and passenger vehicles are frequently required to operate at high speeds, on terrain that is sloped or uneven. These systems can be susceptible to rollover, parti...
— Mobile robots have successfully solved many real world problems. In the following we present the use of mobile robots to address the novel and challenging problem of providing ...
— In this paper, we consider the problem of exploring an unknown environment with a team of mobile robots. One of the key issues in multi-robot exploration is how to assign targe...
— Characterizing optimal paths for mobile robots is an interesting, important, and challenging endeavor. Not only they are interesting with respect to the optimized criteria, but...
