چکیده

This paper introduces the autonomous outdoor robot RAVON (see Figure 1) which is developed at Kaiserslautern University of Technology. The vehicle is used as a testbed to investigate behaviour-based strategies on motion adaptation, localisation and navigation in rough outdoor terrain. At the current stage the vehicle features collision-free autonomous navigation along way points given in GPS coordinates.

Autonomous Offroad Navigation Under Poor GPS Conditions

This paper describes an approach for autonomous offroad navigation for the Civilian European Landrobot Trial 2009 (C-ELROB). The main focus in this paper is how to cope with poor GPS conditions such as occurring in forest environments. Therefore the expected and detected problems are stated, and methods how to achieve good autonomous driving performance due to less weigthing of inaccurate GPS i...

The SmartTer for ELROB 2006 – a Vehicle for Fully Autonomous Navigation and Mapping in Outdoor Environments

The goal of our participation ELROB 2006 is to show fully autonomous navigation and 3D mapping in outdoor setting. Our robots is based on a standard Smart car that has been equipped with five distance laser sensors, three cameras, a differential GPS and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and four computers. The car’s systems states are directly accessed through the can bus. Localization and Nav...

The Single Frame Stereo Vision System for Reliable Obstacle Detection used during the 2005 DARPA Grand Challenge on TerraMaxTM

Autonomous driving in off-road environments requires an exceptionally capable sensor system, especially given that the unstructured environment does not provide many of the cues available in on-road environments. This paper presents a variable-width-baseline (up to 1.5 meters) single-frame stereo vision system for obstacle detection that can meet the needs of autonomous navigation in extreme en...

Driver Support System Based on a Non-linear Slip Observer for off Road Vehicles

Off road ground vehicles have many potential applications, including space, defence, agriculture, mining and construction. Increased autonomy of ground vehicles will not only improve the safety of the operators but also assist in trajectory tracking. Accurate estimation of slip is essential in developing autonomous navigation strategies for mobile off road vehicles operating in unstructured ter...

Daytime Water Detection by Fusing Multiple Cues for Autonomous Off-road Navigation

Detecting water hazards is a significant challenge to unmanned ground vehicle autonomous off-road navigation. This paper focuses on detecting the presence of water during the daytime using color cameras. A multi-cue approach is taken. Evidence of the presence of water is generated from color, texture, and the detection of reflections in stereo range data. A rule base for fusing water cues was d...
