Abstract:
This work focuses on the autonomous exploration of unknown areas by a swarm of mobile robots, referred to as agents. When an emergency happens within a building, it is dangerous to send human responders to search the area for hazards and victims. This motivates the need for autonomous agents that are able to coordinate with each other to explore the area as fast as possible. We investigate this problem from an algorithmic, rather than a robotics point of view, and thus abstract away from practical problems, such as obstacle detection and navigation over rough terrain. Our focus is on distribut

This is a project exploring a possible future of embedded mobile augmented reality services in people's daily routine.

Abstract:
In order for autonomous robots to perform tasks and safely navigate environments they need to have a reliable and detailed map. These maps are generally created by the robot itself since maps with the required level of detail rarely exist beforehand. In order to create that map the robot has to explore an unknown environment. Such activity is referred to as autonomous exploration within the field of robotics. Most research done in autonomous exploration assumes a static environment. Since most environments in the real world often changes over time an exploration algorithm that is able to re-ex

We present an algorithm to explore an orthogonal polygon using a team of p robots. This algorithm combines ideas from information-theoretic exploration algorithms and computational geometry based exploration algorithms. The algorithm is based on a single-robot polygon exploration algorithm and a tree exploration algorithm. We show that the exploration time of our algorithm is competitive (as a function of p) with respect to the offline optimal exploration algorithm. We discuss how this strategy can be adapted to real-world settings to deal with noisy sensors. In addition to theoretical analysi

Unmanned autonomous vehicles, airborne or terrestrial, can be used to solve many varying tasks in vastly different environments. This thesis describes a proposed collaboration between two types of such vehicles, namely unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). The vehicles' objective is to traverse unknown terrain in order to access a target area. The exploration of the unknown terrain is in this thesis divided into three parts. These parts are terrain mapping, informative path planning (IPP) for the UAVs and path planning for the UGV. A Gaussian Process (GP) is used

Robotics is revolutionizing the work in dangerous environments like mines and tunnels, making life easier and safer for the workers. The specific case considered in this thesis regards UAVs used for 3D mapping of these zones. However, the use of UAVs in underground mines can be challenging for many reasons, such as reduced visibility, no GPS localization available and limited wireless communication, challenges that can be partially solved by using au- tonomous robots. Precisely for these reasons, this work aims to contribute on this application with the implementation of an autonomous path pla

The capability of robots to works in dangerous environments like underground mines can allow workers to work in a safer environment.

However, to do that, the robot needs to work in a complex environment with reduced visibility and poor connections.

Mobile robots could be used to search, find, and relocate objects in many types of manufacturing operations and environments. In this scenario, the target objects might reside with equal probability at any location in the environment and, therefore, the robot must navigate and search the whole area autonomously, and be equipped with specific sensors to detect objects. Novel challenges exist in developing a control system, which helps a mobile robot achieve such tasks, including constructing enhanced systems for navigation, and vision-based object recognition.

Unfortunately, since the signals are extremely weak there are environments the GPS signals cannot reach but where positioning is still highly sought after, such as indoors and underwater.

Abstract:
This work presents a new class of algorithms that extend the domain of Navigation Among Movable Obstacles (NAMO) to unknown environments. Efficient real-time algorithms for solving NAMO problems even when no initial environment information is available to the robot are presented and validated. The algorithms yield optimal solutions and are evaluated for real-time performance on a series of simulated domains with more than 70 obstacles. In contrast to previous NAMO algorithms that required a pre-specified environment model, this work considers the realistic domain where the robot is limited by

Abstract:
This thesis describes a novel approach to model and estimate systems of unknown delay. The a-priori knowledge available about the systems is fully utilized so that the number of parameters to be estimated equals the number of unknowns in the systems. Existing methods represent the single unknown system delay by a large number of unknown parameters in the system model. The purpose of this thesis is to develop new methods of modelling the systems so that the unknowns are directly estimated. The Variable Regression Estimation technique is developed to provide direct delay estimation. The delay e
