Controlling synchro-drive robots with the dynamic window approach to collision avoidance
TL;DR: The dynamic window approach to reactive collision avoidance for mobile robots equipped with synchro-drives is proposed and has been found to safely control the mobile robot RHINO with speeds of up to 95 cm/sec, in populated and dynamic environments.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Real-time acquisition of compact volumetric 3D maps with mobile robots
C. Martin,Sebastian Thrun +1 more
TL;DR: This work describes an online algorithm for generating compact 3D maps of mobile robot environments that builds on the expectation maximization algorithm, but develops a new, incremental version that can be executed in real-time.
Proceedings Article
A self-supervised terrain roughness estimator for off-road autonomous driving
David Stavens,Sebastian Thrun +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-supervised machine learning approach for estimating terrain roughness from laser range data is presented, which is significantly more effective at identifying rough surfaces and assuring vehicle safety than previous methods.
Autonomous Driving: Context and State-of-the-Art
TL;DR: In order to provide an overall perspective on how technology is converging towards vehicles with autonomous capabilities, advances have been classified into driver centric, network centric and vehicle centric.

System and process for synthesizing location-referenced panoramic images and video
TL;DR: In this paper, a system and process of morphing location-referenced panoramic images into views at nearby locations is proposed, which enables a user to experience views from arbitrary locations in the environment.
