It’s obvious in the fear and confusion you would feel as I cut you. Further, if there are any ailments, self imposed…. Click Here to Read More

Robotics and Cognitive Approaches to Spatial Mapping

Product DescriptionThis book brings together the fields of robot spatial mapping and cognitive spatial mapping, which share some common core problems. One would reasonably expect some cross-fertilisations of research between the two areas to have occurred, and this has happened but only recently.

Robot spatial mapping, in this book, is about the problem of a robot computing a representation of its environment from data gathered by its sensors. This problem has been studied since the creation of the first autonomous mobile robot in the late…. Click Here to Read More
