Triangle mesh maps are a versatile 3D environment representation for robots to navigate in challenging indoor and outdoor environments exhibiting tunnels, hills and varying slopes. To make use of these mesh maps, methods are needed to accurately localize robots in such maps to perform essential task…
The increasing usage of modern AI techniques represents a transforming shift in the robotics domain. Training and accessing new models requires substantial amounts of application-specific data, but the limited resources onboard mobile robots (like processing power, network bandwidth, etc.) pose a ch…
We present a highly efficient approach to compute continuous shortest path vector fields on arbitrarily shaped 3D triangular meshes for robot navigation in complex real-world outdoor environments. The continuity of the vector field allows to query the shortest distance, direction and geodesic path t…
We present Move Base Flex (MBF), a highly flexible, modular, map-independent, open-source navigation framework for use in ROS. MBF provides modular actions for executing plugins for path planning, motion control, and recovery. These actions define interfaces for external executives to allow highly f
