Covariance Based Terrain Mapping for Autonomous Mobile Robots

Lennart Werner, Pedro Proença, Andreas Nüchter, Roland Brockers

ICRA 2024poster

In this paper, we present a local, robot-centric navigation map optimized for autonomous mobile robots operating in unknown environments, enhancing their onboard perception systems for collision-free operation with far look-ahead distances. Utilizing a novel converging covariance cell representation…

EELS: Towards Autonomous Mobility in Extreme Terrain with a Versatile Snake Robot with Resilience to Exteroception Failures

Rohan Thakker, Michael Paton, Marlin P. Strub, Michael Swan, Guglielmo Daddi, Rob Royce +41

IROS 2023poster

The discovery of ocean worlds such as Enceladus, Titan, and Europa motivates the development of versatile autonomous mobility systems to enable the next era of space exploration where there is large uncertainty in terrain specifications due to a lack of prior surface reconnaissance missions. To expl…
