Overview

This edited and reviewed volume consists of papers that were originally presented at a workshop in the Scientific Center at Schloss Dagstuhl, Germany. It gives an overview of the field and presents the latest developments in the areas of modeling and planning for sensor based robots. The particular topics addressed include active vision, sensor fusion, environment modeling, motion planning, robot navigation, distributed control architectures, reactive behavior, and others.Contents: Dynamic Environmental Modeling by the C-Tree (K Verbarg & H Noltemeier) Competitive Strategies for Autonomous Systems (C Icking & R Kelin) Boundary Extraction for Rasterized Motion Planning (H Mueller) Collision Detection: A Geometric Approach (P Jimenez & C Torras) Planning with Uncertainty of Vision (Y Shirai) Applications of Fractal Image Encoding (P Levi et al.)
