An approach to robot perception and world modeling that uses a probabilistic tesselated
representation of spatial information called the occupancy grid is reviewed. The occupancy …

Surveys the developments of the last 20 years in the area of vision for mobile robot
navigation. Two major components of the paper deal with indoor navigation and outdoor …

A system for automated inventory management and material handling removes the

The issues involved in integrating multiple sensors into the operation of a system are
presented in the context of the type of information these sensors can uniquely provide. A …

We present a practical approach to global motion planning and terrain assessment for
ground robots in generic three‐dimensional (3D) environments, including rough outdoor …

An architecture is presented in which distributed task-achieving modules, or behaviours,
cooperatively determine a mobile robot's path by voting for each of various possible actions …
