Abstract

The Carnegie—Mellon University Navigational Laboratory (the CMU Navlab) project integrates sensing, image understanding, planning, control, and software systems architectures onto a self-contained mobile robot. The Navlab drives autonomously along a variety of roads (dirt, gravel unmarked bicycle paths, city streets, rural roads) and cross-country. This chapter describes the Navlab and its contributions in color vision, neural nets, 3-D perception, planning, and robot architectures.
