Modelling And Planning For Sensor Based Intelligent Robot Systems

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 modelling and planning for sensor based robots. The particular topics addressed include active vision, sensor fusion, environment modelling, motion planning, robot navigation, distributed control architectures, reactive behaviour, and others. Key contributors to this volume are: S. Arimoto, R. Bolles, H. Bunke, H. Christensen, R. Dillmann, T. Henderson, R. Jarvis, H. Noltemeier, U. Rembold, Y. Shirai, C. Torras.
