Towards A COLREGs Compliant Autonomous Surface Vessel in a Constrained Channel
James Connor Meyers, Thomas Sayre McCord, Zhiyong Zhang +1
In this paper, we look at the role of autonomous navigation in the maritime domain. Specifically, we examine how an Autonomous Surface Vessel(ASV) can achieve obstacle avoidance ba…
A Light Field Front-end for Robust SLAM in Dynamic Environments
Pushyami Kaveti, Hanumant Singh
There is a general expectation that robots should operate in urban environments often consisting of potentially dynamic entities including people, furniture and automobiles. Dynami…
Removing Dynamic Objects for Static Scene Reconstruction using Light Fields
Pushyami Kaveti, Sammie Katt, Hanumant Singh
There is a general expectation that robots should operate in environments that consist of static and dynamic entities including people, furniture and automobiles. These dynamic env…
Dynamic Channel Selection in UAVs through Constellations in the Sky
Guillem Reus Muns, Mithun Diddi, Hanumant Singh +1
Wireless communication between an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and the ground base station (BS) is susceptible to adversarial jamming. In such situations, it is important for the…
ROS Rescue : Fault Tolerance System for Robot Operating System
Pushyami Kaveti, Hanumant Singh
In this chapter we discuss the problem of master failure in ROS1.0 and its impact on robotic deployments in the real world. We address this issue in this tutorial chapter where we…
AutOTranS: an Autonomous Open World Transportation System
Brayan S. Zapata-Impata, Vikrant Shah, Hanumant Singh +1
Tasks in outdoor open world environments are now ripe for automation with mobile manipulators. The dynamic, unstructured and unknown environments associated with such tasks -- a pr…
