The authors have been developing an outdoor mobile robot intended to provide increased traveling distance by autonomously negotiating and crossing a road crossing intersection while traveling along pedestrian sidewalks in an urban environment. In this paper, high precision navigation towards a pedestrian push-button box by a mobile robot for the autonomous activation of the button is presented. We...
In the autonomous city explorer (ACE) project a mobile robot is developed, which is capable of finding its way to a given destination in an unknown urban environment. An exemplary mission is to find the way from our institute to the Marienplatz, a public place in the center of Munich, without any prior knowledge or GPS information. Inspired by the behavior of humans in unknown environments, ACE must...
Autonomous robot navigation has many applications such as space exploration and autonomous vehicles. Currently, such navigation is ensured by the use of multiple sensors which may hinder quick commercialization. In this article, we propose a solution for navigating a robot in an unknown environment using only monocular vision algorithms.
