Mobile Manipulation Platform for Autonomous Indoor Inspections in Low-Clearance Areas
Erik Pearson, Paul Szenher, Christine Huang +1
Mobile manipulators have been used for inspection, maintenance and repair tasks over the years, but there are some key limitations. Stability concerns typically require mobile plat…
A Robust and Rapidly Deployable Waypoint Navigation Architecture for Long-Duration Operations in GPS-Denied Environments
Erik Pearson, Brendan Englot
For long-duration operations in GPS-denied environments, accurate and repeatable waypoint navigation is an essential capability. While simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM)…
Robust Unmanned Surface Vehicle Navigation with Distributional Reinforcement Learning
Xi Lin, John McConnell, Brendan Englot
Autonomous navigation of Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USV) in marine environments with current flows is challenging, and few prior works have addressed the sensorbased navigation pro…
Robust Route Planning with Distributional Reinforcement Learning in a Stochastic Road Network Environment
Xi Lin, Paul Szenher, John D. Martin +1
Route planning is essential to mobile robot navigation problems. In recent years, deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has been applied to learning optimal planning policies in stocha…
Monocular Simultaneous Localization and Mapping using Ground Textures
Kyle M. Hart, Brendan Englot, Ryan P. O'Shea +2
Recent work has shown impressive localization performance using only images of ground textures taken with a downward facing monocular camera. This provides a reliable navigation me…
