Globally Consistent Range Scan Alignment for Environment MappingAutonomous Robots - Tập 4 Số 4 - Trang 333-349 - 1997
Lu, F., Milios, E.
A robot exploring an unknown environment may need to build a worldmodel from sensor measurements. In order to integrate all the framesof sensor data, it is essential to align the data properly. Anincremental approach has been typically used in the past, in whicheach local frame of data is aligned to a cumulative global model, andthen merged to the model. Because different parts of the model areupd...... hiện toàn bộ
Distributed matroid-constrained submodular maximization for multi-robot exploration: theory and practiceAutonomous Robots - Tập 43 - Trang 485-501 - 2018
Micah Corah, Nathan Michael
This work addresses the problem of efficient online exploration and mapping using multi-robot teams via a new distributed algorithm for multi-robot exploration, distributed sequential greedy assignment (DSGA), which is based on sequential greedy assignment (SGA). While SGA permits bounds on suboptimality, robots must execute planning steps sequentially. Rather than plan for each robot sequentially...... hiện toàn bộ

Top-down vs bottom-up methodologies in multi-agent system designAutonomous Robots - Tập 24 - Trang 303-313 - 2008
Valentino Crespi, Aram Galstyan, Kristina Lerman
Traditionally, two alternative design approaches have been available to engineers: top-down and bottom-up. In the top-down approach, the design process starts with specifying the global system state and assuming that each component has global knowledge of the system, as in a centralized approach. The solution is then decentralized by replacing global knowledge with communication. In the bottom-up...... hiện toàn bộ
3-D relative positioning sensor for indoor flying robotsAutonomous Robots - Tập 33 - Trang 5-20 - 2012
James F. Roberts, Timothy Stirling, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Dario Floreano
Swarms of indoor flying robots are promising for many applications, including searching tasks in collapsing buildings, or mobile surveillance and monitoring tasks in complex man-made structures. For tasks that employ several flying robots, spatial-coordination between robots is essential for achieving collective operation. However, there is a lack of on-board sensors capable of sensing the highly-...... hiện toàn bộ
HERB: a home exploring robotic butlerAutonomous Robots - Tập 28 - Trang 5-20 - 2009
Siddhartha S. Srinivasa, Dave Ferguson, Casey J. Helfrich, Dmitry Berenson, Alvaro Collet, Rosen Diankov, Garratt Gallagher, Geoffrey Hollinger, James Kuffner, Michael Vande Weghe
We describe the architecture, algorithms, and experiments with HERB, an autonomous mobile manipulator that performs useful manipulation tasks in the home. We present new algorithms for searching for objects, learning to navigate in cluttered dynamic indoor scenes, recognizing and registering objects accurately in high clutter using vision, manipulating doors and other constrained objects using cag...... hiện toàn bộ
Integrating Exploration, Localization, Navigation and Planning with a Common RepresentationAutonomous Robots - Tập 6 - Trang 293-308 - 1999
Alan C. Schultz, William Adams, Brian Yamauchi
Two major themes of our research include the creation of mobile robot systems that are robust and adaptive in rapidly changing environments, and the view of integration as a basic research issue. Where reasonable, we try to use the same representations to allow different components to work more readily together and to allow better and more natural integration of and communication between these com...... hiện toàn bộ
Fast, On-Line Learning of Globally Consistent MapsAutonomous Robots - Tập 12 - Trang 287-300 - 2002
Tom Duckett, Stephen Marsland, Jonathan Shapiro
To navigate in unknown environments, mobile robots require the ability to build their own maps. A major problem for robot map building is that odometry-based dead reckoning cannot be used to assign accurate global position information to a map because of cumulative drift errors. This paper introduces a fast, on-line algorithm for learning geometrically consistent maps using only local metric infor...... hiện toàn bộ
Hybrid image plane/stereo (HIPS) manipulation for robotic space applicationsAutonomous Robots - Tập 23 - Trang 83-96 - 2007
Matthew L. Robinson, Eric T. Baumgartner, Kevin M. Nickels, Todd E. Litwin
Manipulation systems for planetary exploration operate under severe limitations due to power and weight restrictions and extreme environmental conditions. Typically such systems employ carefully calibrated stereo cameras and carefully calibrated manipulators to achieve precision on the order of ten millimeters with respect to instrument placement activities. The environmental and functional restr...... hiện toàn bộ
A highly stable and efficient spherical underwater robot with hybrid propulsion devicesAutonomous Robots - Tập 44 - Trang 759-771 - 2020
Shuoxin Gu, Shuxiang Guo, Liang Zheng
Underwater robots have been promoted a significant interest in monitoring the marine environment. In some complex situation, robots sometimes need to keep moving fast, sometimes need to keep low speed and low noise. To address this issue, a novel spherical underwater robot (SUR IV) with hybrid propulsion devices including vectored water-jet and propeller thrusters is proposed in this paper.
