Mobile robot navigation in dynamic environments
Service robots which act in environments populated by humans have <br>become very popular in the last few years. A variety of systems exists <br>which act for example in hospitals, office buildings, department <br>stores, and museums. Furthermore, several multi-robot systems have <br>been developed …

Indexical grounding for a mobile robot
We have outfitted a mobile research robot with several sensors and algorithms designed to facilitate small- and large-scale navigation and natural language interaction. We begin with a parser using a large, hand-crafted English grammar and lexicon. We then add a standard gradient navigation …

Mobile robot teleoperation through eye-gaze (telegaze)
… is required to monitor the status of the robot, as well as, issue controlling commands for the whole duration of the operation. Using a vision based feedback system, monitoring the robot requires the operator to look at a continuous stream of images displayed on an interaction screen. The …

Autonomous Mobile Robot Positioning using Unscented HydridSLAM
… and mapping (SLAM) is a process in which a mobile robot travels through an environment and concurrently makes a momentary map of the environment and uses that map to localize itself. The simultaneous localization and mapping is currently one of the most challenging problems in the field of …

Point cloud segmentation for mobile robot manipulation
In this thesis, we develop a system for estimating a belief state for a scene over multiple observations of the scene. Given as input a sequence of observed RGB-D point clouds of a scene, a list of known objects in the scene and their pose distributions as a prior, and a black-box object detector, …

Mixed-Mode Control Interfaces of Mobile Robot Teams
… of a task-level control interface for teams of mobile robots. The control interface, which visually resembles a video game and contains the functional elements of traditional robot control software, was designed and implemented using the ROS software framework. Unlike previous interfaces in the …

Hmm-Based Semantic Learning for a Mobile Robot
We are developing a intelligent robot and attempting to teach it language. While there are many aspects of this research, for the purposes of this dissertation the most important are the following ideas. Language is primarily based on semantics, not syntax, which is the focus in speech recognition …

Mobile robot control and navigation in public spaces
Public service robots have been more and more popular due to their social and economical influences. This thesis investigated two issues about control and navigation of public service robots deployed in crowded environments such as airports and shopping malls. Our solutions facilitates the synergy …

Multiple Mobile Robot SLAM for collaborative mapping and exploration
Over the past five decades, Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) have been an active research field. Maps of high accuracy are required for AMRs to operate successfully. In addition to this, AMRs needs to localise themselves reliably relative to the map. Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) …
