Robots losing track of where they are is a long-standing challenge known as the “kidnapped robot” problem, but researchers say they have developed a new AI system that could help solve it. A research ...
Mobile robots must continuously estimate their position to navigate autonomously. However, satellite-based navigation systems are not always reliable: signals may degrade near buildings or become ...
A hierarchical 3D LiDAR localization method improves robot positioning in large outdoor spaces, even after seasonal changes, without the knowledge of the initial pose, thereby solving the “kidnapped ...
