Autonomous vehicles are expected to play a key role in the future of urban transportation
systems, as they offer potential for additional safety, increased productivity, greater …

Time-of-flight cameras constitute a smart and fast technology for 3D perception but lack in
measurement precision and robustness. The authors present a comprehensive approach for …

This paper presents a precise localization algorithm for vehicles in 3D urban environment
with only one 2D LIDAR and odometry information. A novel idea of synthetic 2D LIDAR is …

The robotics community has witnessed a growing demand for long-term navigation of
autonomous robots in diverse environments, including factories, homes, offices, and public …

A regular ceiling is common in many offices. The plentiful parallels and corner points on the
ceiling can serve as features for visual positioning for an indoor mobile robot. Based on the …

In this paper we consider the global localization problem for an industrial AGV moving in a
known environment. The problem consists of determining the pose of the vehicle without any …

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge autonomous forklifts, with a
strong emphasis on sensors, object detection and system functionality. It aims to explore …

This paper presents a method for precise 3D en-vironment map**. It employs only a 3D
Time-of-Flight (ToF) camera and no additional sensors. The camera pose is estimated using …

Navigation and map** is well understood for dynamic 2D or static 3D environments since
elaborated approaches exist that address the problems faced in standard mobile robot …

This paper presents a method for simultaneous segmentation and modeling of objects,
detected in range data gathered by a laser scanner mounted onboard ground-robotic …
