Planning Positioning Actions of a Mobile Robot Cooperating with Distributed Sensors

  • Conference paper
Book cover Computer Recognition Systems

Part of the book series: Advances in Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 30))

Abstract

Localization procedures for a mobile robot cooperating with external cameras and artificial navigation aids (landmarks) are discussed. An action planning method, taking into account in an exact way both the action cost and positioning uncertainty is presented. Its performance is illustrated by results of simulations.
