For a robot, an animal, and even for man, to be able to use an internal representation of the
spatial layout of its environment to position itself is a very complex task, which raises …

Positioning is a fundamental issue in mobile robot applications. It can be achieved in many
ways. Among them, triangulation based on angles measured with the help of beacons is a …

La robotique est un très bon exemple de domaine pluri-disciplinaire qui implique de
nombreuses thématiques telles que la mécanique, la mécatronique, l'électronique …

In this paper we investigate the geometry and algebra of multiple one-dimensional
projections of a two-dimensional environment. This is relevant for one-dimensional cameras …

Safe navigation at sea depends on reliable position information. The easy to use and readily
available navigation satellite systems are providing round the clock position information for …

As multiple robot approaches to localization become more prevalent, existing triangulation
methods involving fixed location landmarks are inadequate to accurately determine a robot's …

This paper centres on the problem of estimating the location of features in the environment
within a map building framework for a mobile robot with a single camera. Most of the existing …

In this work, robot navigation is approached using visual landmarks. Landmarks are not
preselected or otherwise defined a priori; they are extracted automatically during a learning …

This article presents a vision-based method for mobile robot localization in partially known
environments. Simple, unobtrusive artificial landmarks are used as external localization …

Vision (both using one-dimensional and two-dimensional retina) is useful for the
autonomous navigation of vehicles. In this paper the case of a vehicle equipped with …
