An all-terrain vehicle, the Husky A200 robotic platform, has
AMTC
been equipped with a scanning Millimetre Wave (MMW) radar,
FONDECYT
a scanning laser range finder and a camera system.
Clearpath Robotics
By use of examples showing state of the art feature detectors with
Partner
these sensors, common sensing and detection errors have been highlighted, motivating the need for a re-evaluation of stochastic,
Clearpath Robotics
feature-based robotic navigation and mapping concepts, which jointly consider sensing and detection errors. This project is in its initial phase and future experiments will take place with the robotic system in underground and open pit mines. These experiments will explore the potential for reliable mapping with the sensor data provided by the system.
