Service robots which should perform human-like operation will penetrate into a great number of applications in the future. Requirements for this is high flexibility, autonomy and ...
This paper deals with an omni-directional sensor based on a camera and a mirror generated with a surface of revolution. The requirements the device must fulfill result from its use...
Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a basic prerequisite in autonomous mobile robotics. Most existing visual SLAM approaches either assume a static environment, or sim...
Research on mobile robot navigation has produced two major paradigms for mapping indoorenvironments: grid-based and topological. While grid-based methods produce accurate metric m...
This paper presents a localization system for mobile robots that are able to navigate autonomously in industrial environments like factory and exhibition halls. Previous approache...
