Robotic Mapping and exploration
By the dawn of the new millennium, robotics has undergone a major trans-
formation in scope and dimensions. This expansion has been brought about
by the maturity of the field and the advances in its related technologies. From
a largely dominant industrial focus, robotics has been rapidly expanding into
the challenges of the human world. The new generation of robots is expected
to safely and dependably co-habitat with humans in homes, workplaces, and
communities, providing support in services, entertainment, education, health-
care, manufacturing, and assistance.
Beyond its impact on physical robots, the body of knowledge robotics has
produced is revealing a much wider range of applications reaching across di-
verse research areas and scientific disciplines, such as: biomechanics, haptics,
neurosciences, virtual simulation, animation, surgery, and sensor networks
among others. In return, the challenges of the new emerging areas are prov-
ing an abundant source of stimulation and insights for the field of robotics.
It is indeed at the intersection of disciplines that the most striking advances
happen.
slam经典书籍 STATE ESTIMATION FOR ROBOTICS
国外大学slam领域经典教材。
“In this book, we introduce the classic estimation results for linear
systems corrupted by Gaussian measurement noise. We then exam-
ine some of the extensions to nonlinear systems with non-Gaussian
noise. In a departure from typical estimation texts, we take a detailed
look at how to tailor general estimation results to robots operating in
three-dimensional space, advocating a particular approach to handling
rotations.”
