Robot localization inside tunnels is a challenging task due to the special conditions of these
environments. The GPS-denied nature of these scenarios, coupled with the low visibility …

Accurate robot localization inside pipes is a challenging task due to the special conditions of
this type of environments. Humidity, slippery surfaces and mainly the lack of distinctive …

Accurate localization is a problem in environments such as tunnels or pipes due to the
hostile conditions, dimensions and the general lack of distinctive visual and/or structural …

In tunnel-like environments the electromagnetic waves propagate differently in comparison
to free space and urban scenarios. This is because, depending on the working frequency …

Tunnels represent challenging scenarios for robotics, where the hostile conditions such as
the GPS-denied nature of the environment, walls uniformity, darkness and lack of features …

Tunnels in construction exhibit many challenges for automation. In this work we address the
robotization of a conventional dumper for debris removal during the construction of tunnels …

Robot localization inside tunnels is a challenging task due to the hostile conditions of the
environment. The GPS-denied nature of the scenario together with the low visibility, slippery …

In tunnel-like environments such as sewers, road tunnels and mines, a robot or team of
networked mobile robots can provide monitoring services, surveillance or search and …

Understanding wireless channels in mining environments is critical for designing optimized
wireless systems in these complex environments. In this paper, we propose a physics-based …
