Proprioceptive localization (PL) refers to robot or vehicle egocentric localization methods that do not rely on the perception and recognition of external landmarks. These methods depend on a prior map and proprioceptive sensors such as inertial measurement units and/or wheel encoders. PL is intende
We report a localization method that does not rely on the perception and recognition of landmarks for a robot/vehicle traveling in urban area. This is intended to be a fall back solution when everything else fails due to bad weather or other environmental challenges. The method is also very low cost
Existing autonomous vehicle (AV) navigation algorithms treat lane recognition, obstacle avoidance, local path planning, and lane following as separate functional modules which result in driving behavior that is incompatible with human drivers. It is imperative to design human-compatible navigation a…
