Outdoor Terrain Traversability Analysis for Robot Navigation using a Time-Of-Flight Camera

Host Publication: Proc. RGB-D Workshop on 3D Perception in Robotics

Authors: G. De Cubber, L. Daniela Doroftei, H. Sahli and Y. Baudoin

Publication Year: 2011

Number of Pages: 2


Abstract:

Autonomous robotic systems operating in unstructured outdoor environments need to estimate the traversability of the terrain in order to navigate safely. Traversability estimation is a challenging problem, as the traversability is a complex function of both the terrain characteristics, such as slopes, vegetation, rocks, etc and the robot mobility characteristics, i.e. locomotion method, wheels, etc. It is thus required to analyze in real-time the 3D characteristics of the terrain and pair this data to the robot capabilities.
