Abstract

This report describes the structure, implementation, and operation of a real-time mobile robot controller which integrates capabilities such as: Position estimation, path specification and tracking, human interfaces, fast communication, and multiple client support. The benefits of such high-level capabilities in a low-level controller was shown by its implementation for the Navlab autonomous vehicle. In addition, performance results from positioning and tracking systems are reported and analyzed.
