Multi-Robot Fire Searching in Unknown Environment

Ali Marjovi

Exploration of an unknown environment is a fundamental concern in mobile robotics. This paper presents an approach for cooperative multi-robot exploration, fire searching and mapping in an unknown environment. The proposed approach aims to minimize the ove ...

Towards a Cognitive Probabilistic Representation of Space for Mobile Robots

Roland Siegwart

Robots are rapidly evolving from factory workhorses to robot-companions. The future of robots, as our companions, is highly dependent on their abilities to understand, interpret and represent the environment in an efficient and consistent fashion, in a ...

Precise Bearing Angle Measurement Based on Omnidirectional Conic Sensor and Defocusing

Roland Siegwart, Davide Scaramuzza

Recent studies on multi-robot localization have shown that the uncertainty of robot location may be considerably reduced by optimally fusing odometry and the relative angles of sight (bearing) among the team members. However, the latter requires the capabi ...

Vision-based Navigation from Wheels to Wings

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Antoine Beyeler

We describe an incremental approach towards the development of autonomous indoor flyers that use only vision to navigate in textured environments. In order to cope with the severe weight and energy constraints of such systems, we use spiking neural control ...

Searching a Target with a Mobile Robot

Adriana Tapus

This paper presents an application of the Markov Decision Processes to search a target with a mobile robot. The robot does not know the absolute position of the target. It only knows the position of the target relative to its position. Markov Decision Proc ...

Improving the Expressiveness of Mobile Robots

Roland Siegwart, Björn Jensen

RoboX is a tour guide robot, designed to interact with visitors at Expo02, the Swiss National Exhibition. During five months, ten RoboXs will be in contact with people not trained to autonomous robots and will guide them throughout an exhibition about robo ...

The Odometry Error of a Mobile Robot with a Synchronous Drive System

This paper presents an error modeling of an odometry system for a synchronous-drive system and a possible strategy for evaluating this error. The odometry error is modeled by introducing four parameters characterizing its systematic and nonsystematic compo ...

The Accuracy on the Parameter Estimation of an Odometry System of a Mobile Robot

The odometry error of a mobile robot contains both sys- tematic and non-systematic components. The first ones are independent of the environment while the second ones depend on the interaction of the robot with the environ- ment where the robot moves. In t ...
