Abstract − Autonomous robots need to acquire both omnidirectional view and stereo in real-time without sacrificing too much image resolution. The recent catadioptric omnidirectio...
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 ...

We consider the problem of distributed exploration or coverage of an unknown environment by a swarm of mobile minirobots that have limited memory, computation and communication ca...
This paper describes a working stereo-vision-based mobile robot that can navigate and autonomously explore its environment safely while building occupancy grid maps of the environ...
– In this paper, we present a hierarchical methodology that learns new walking gaits autonomously while operating in an uncharted environment, such as on the Mars planetary surfa...
