A 2D laser-scanner was deployed at the high tide runup limit of a pure gravel beach (Loe
Bar, Cornwall, England) to measure high-frequency (2.5 Hz) swash hydrodynamics and …

Tall buildings are concentrated in urban areas. The outer walls of buildings are vertically
erected to the ground and almost flat. Therefore, the vertical corners that meet the vertical …

This work presents a cooperative monocular-based SLAM approach for multi-UAV systems
that can operate in GPS-denied environments. The main contribution of the work is to show …

In the event of natural or man-made disasters, providing rapid situational awareness through
video/image data collected at salient incident scenes is often critical to the first responders …

This paper describes a measurement system designed to register the displacement of the
legs using a two-dimensional laser range sensor with a scanning plane parallel to the …

An increasing amount of anthropogenic marine debris is pervading the earth's
environmental systems, resulting in an enormous threat to living organisms. Additionally, the …

This work proposes the creation of a bioinspired electronic white cane for blind people using
the whiskers principle for short-range navigation and exploration. Whiskers are coarse hairs …

Environmental map** serves as a crucial element in Simultaneous Localization and
Map** (SLAM) algorithms, playing a pivotal role in ensuring the accurate representation …

Mobile robots are increasingly being developed for planetary exploration, mining, forestry,
hazardous site clean-up, logistics, surveillance, fire rescue missions and soldier assistance …

This paper describes a relative localization system used to achieve the navigation of a
convoy of robotic units in indoor environments. This positioning system is carried out fusing …
