Terrain and Adversary-Aware Autonomous Robot Navigation
<p>In autonomous robot navigation, the robot is able to understand the environment around it for intelligent navigation. From its world model of this environment, it generates a global plan for navigation from a position to a goal based on different factors. This research aims to implement …

Wireless mosaic eyes based robot path planning and control. Autonomous robot navigation using environment intelligence with distributed vision sensors.
As an attempt to steer away from developing an autonomous robot with complex centralised intelligence, this thesis proposes an intelligent environment infrastructure where intelligences are distributed in the environment through collaborative vision sensors mounted in a physical architecture, …

Autonomous Robotic Strategies for Urban Search and Rescue
This dissertation proposes autonomous robotic strategies for urban search and rescue (USAR) which are map-based semi-autonomous robot navigation and fully-autonomous robotic search, tracking, localization and mapping (STLAM) using a team of robots. Since the prerequisite for these solutions is …

V-SLAM and Sensor Fusion for Ground Robots
… underwater and indoor environments, a robot has to rely solely on its on-board sensors to sense and understand its surroundings. This is the main reason why SLAM gained the popularity it has today. In recent years, we have seen excellent improvement on accuracy of localization using …

Real-time Dense Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping over Large Scale Environments
The ability for a robot to create a map of an unknown environment and localise within that map is of critical importance in intelligent autonomous operation. This problem is referred to as Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (or SLAM) and has been one of the major focusses of robotics research …
