This paper discusses the problem of autonomously constructing a qualitative map of an unknown 3D environment using a 3D-Lidar. In this case, how can we effectively integrate the quality of the 3D-reconstruction into the selection of the Next-Best-View? Here, we address the challenge of estimating th…
In this letter we apply Deep Reinforcement Learning (Deep RL) and Domain Randomization to solve a navigation task in a natural environment relying solely on a 2D laser scanner. We train a model-based RL agent in simulation to follow lake and river shores and apply it on a real Unmanned Surface Vehic
Autonomous robotic weeding systems in precision farming have demonstrated their full potential to alleviate the current dependency on herbicides or pesticides by introducing selective spraying or mechanical weed removal modules, thus reducing the environmental pollution and improving the sustainabil…
