Robotic coverage tasks often require teams of robots to not only survey regions of interest but also trace and interact with linear features such as cracks, seams, or pipelines. We term this the double coverage problem, where robots must balance two competing roles: wide-area exploration for inspect…
The fusion of a monocular camera and an inertial sensor (i.e., IMU) can help the autonomous navigation ability of a mobile robot, as well as obtain the environmental information. However, it is difficult to adapt the fusion for dynamic objects. Although several recent studies have tracked or even re
A simultaneous robotic footprint and sensor coverage planning scheme is proposed to efficiently detect all the unknown targets with range sensors and cover the targets with the robot's footprint in a structured environment. The proposed online Sensor-based Complete Coverage (online SCC) planning min…
