Abstract
This document describes the local map blackboard component of a mobile robot system, the Autonomous Land Vehicle (ALV), under construction at CMU. This system will utilize diverse sensors including cameras, sonar, and range finders to navigate autonomously on roads; it is composed of several processes performing these tasks and communicating via a Local Map Builder process, which is the subject of this document.
