Odor Source Localization with Mobile Robots

Alcherio Martinoli, Thomas Lochmatter, Xavier Raemy

Because of their excellent olfactory sense, dogs are often used to find bombs, mines, drugs, or people buried by avalanches. For such applications, autonomous mobile robots could be used in the future. Electronic sensors already exist for a wide variety of ...

Fifty years of self-assembly experimentation

Roderich Gross

In this paper, we review half a century of research on the design of systems displaying (physical) self-assembly of macroscopic components. We report on the experience gained in the study of 22 such systems, exhibiting components ranging from passive mecha ...

Feature-based 3D SLAM

Jan Weingarten

This doctoral thesis deals with an open subproblem of robot navigation, namely simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in three-dimensional space. The goal is to develop a system which is capable of localizing a mobile robot in a reliable way and at t ...

Stereo-Based Ego-Motion Estimation Using Pixel Tracking and Iterative Closest Point

Roland Siegwart

In this paper, we present a stereovision algorithm for real-time 6DoF ego-motion estimation, which integrates normalized cross-correlation-based feature tracking and 3D stereo information in the well-known Iterative Closest Point (ICP) scheme. The proposed ...

Topological SLAM

Adriana Tapus

This thesis is about topological navigation, more precisely about space representation, perception, localization and mapping. All these elements are needed in order to obtain a robust and reliable framework for navigation. This is essential in order to mov ...

A Control Method for Stable and Smooth Path Following of Mobile Robots

Roland Siegwart

This paper addresses the problem of mobile robot navigation in indoor cluttered environments. A new algorithm for both longitudinal and lateral real-time control of wheel-based mobile robots has been proposed. Its main characteristic is smooth and stable f ...

Evolving Self-Organizing Behaviors for a Swarm-bot

Dario Floreano, Francesco Mondada, Roderich Gross, Jean-Louis Deneubourg, Luca Maria Gambardella

In this paper, we introduce a self-assembling and self-organizing artifact, called a swarm-bot, composed of a swarm of s-bots, mobile robots with the ability to connect to and to disconnect from each other. We discuss the challenges involved in controlling ...

Fast Color-Independent Ball Detection for Mobile Robots

Sara Mitri

This paper presents a novel scheme for fast color invariant ball detection in the RoboCup context. Edge ﬁltered camera images serve as an input for an Ada Boost learning procedure that constructs a cascade of classiﬁcation and regression trees (CARTs). Our ...

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 ...

Feature-Based Multi-Hypothesis Localization and Tracking for Mobile Robots Using Geometric Constraints

Roland Siegwart, Kai Oliver Arras

In this paper we present a new probabilistic feature-based approach to multi-hypothesis global localization and pose tracking. Hypotheses are generated using a constraintbased search in the interpretation tree of possible localto-global pairings. This resu ...
