'Alfonso García-Cerezo' 'Saso Blazic'] Providing mobile robots with autonomous capabilities is advantageous. It allows one to dispense with the intervention of human operators, which may prove beneficial in economic and safety terms. Autonomy requires, in most cases, the use of path planners that enable the robot to…

'Santiago Garrido' 'Jordi Palacín Roca'] Mobile robot navigation has been studied for a long time, and it is nowadays widely used in multiple applications. However, it is traditionally focused on two-dimensional geometric characteristics of the environments. There are situations in which robots need to share space with…

This paper discusses the navigation of the home service robot with least power consumption. Firstly, the localization of position of the robot with least power consumption is analyzed based on the geometrical relationship between robot and home appliance, then the localization of angle of the robot in the indoor…

This paper presents a novel approach for navigation in complex and unknown environments. At present, existing local path planners whose control output is the mapping of current sensor data have been widely studied. However, these methods cannot really solve the problem of being trapped by obstacles. We analyzed the…

Biological principles draw attention to service robotics because of similar concepts when robots operate various tasks. Bioinspired perception is significant for robotic perception, which is inspired by animals’ awareness of the environment. This paper reviews the bioinspired perception and navigation of service robots…

'Victor H. Ponce-Ponce' 'Alma Y. Alanis'] Robot navigation allows mobile robots to navigate among obstacles without hitting them and reaching the specified goal point. In addition to preventing collisions, it is also essential for mobile robots to sense and maintain an appropriate battery power level at all times to…

Robot navigation in confined spaces has gained popularity in recent years, but offline planning assumes static obstacles, which limits its application to online path-planning. Several methods have been introduced to perform an efficient robot navigation process. However, various existing methods mainly depend on…
Kamal M. Othman, Ahmad B. Rad
In this paper, we present a navigation strategy exclusively designed for social robots with limited sensors for applications in homes. The overall system integrates a reactive design based on subsumption architecture and a knowledge system with learning capabilities. The component of the system includes several…

'André Schneider de Oliveira' 'Vivian Cremer Kalempa'] Robotic teleoperation is essential for hazardous environments where human safety is at risk. However, efficient and intuitive human-machine interaction for multi-robot systems remains challenging. This article aims to demonstrate a robotic teleoperation system…
Carlos Rubio-Sierra, Diego Domínguez, Jesús Gonzalo, Alberto Escapa
This paper presents a path planner solution that makes it possible to autonomously explore underground mines with aerial robots (typically multicopters). In these environments the operations may be limited by many factors like the lack of external navigation signals, the narrow passages and the absence of radio…
