Applications of autonomous robots in safety and security

Author: Sabatta, D Date: Oct 2012 In his talk, the author discusses the use of autonomous robots in safety and security-related applications, including safety inspections; search and rescue; soldier support; and surveillance. Read more
Improved appearance-based matching in similar and dynamic environments using a vocabulary tree

Author: Sabatta, D ; Scaramuzza, D ; Siegwart, R Date: May 2010 In this paper the authors present a topological map building algorithm based on a Vocabulary Tree that is robust to features present in dynamic or similar environments. The algorithm recognises incorrect loop closures, not supported by the ... Read more
Localisation and mapping in GPS-denied environments using RFID tags

Author: James, S ; Verrinder, RA ; Sabatta, D ; Shahdi, A Date: Sep 2012 This research addresses the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem in the context of an underground mining environment. This would allow autonomous vehicle navigation in this hazardous setting. This environmental setting has few ... Read more
Position fusion for an outdoor mobile robot

Author: Burke, Michael G ; Sabatta, D Date: Nov 2009 Global Positioning Systems (GPS) provide an effective means of outdoor localisation. Unfortunately they are subject to a variety of errors, particularly in cluttered environments where GPS signal is not always available. Whilst GPS positional ... Read more
A probabilistic quarter-car model for predicting worst-case vehicle performance

Author: Clarke, Anria ; Sabatta, D Date: Sep 2018 Vehicle preview models have gained increasing popularity in recent years as a means of predicting potentially hazardous vehicle control inputs and attempting to mitigate their effects. These models are even more important in the field of ... Read more
Topic models for conference session assignment: organising PRASA 2014(5)

Author: Burke, Michael G ; Sabatta, D Date: Nov 2015 Conference scheduling and organising is a particularly laborious task and can be exteremely time consuming. While many online conference platforms allow manual topic selection, these can be expensive and typically still require that individual ... Read more
Underground navigation and localisation using RFID tags

Author: James, S ; Verrinder, RA ; Sabatta, D ; Shahdi, A Date: Oct 2012 One of the major issues in the field of mobile robotics is localisation and navigation in an unknown environment. These tasks become even more challenging in an underground environment where no GPS signals or stationary landmark towers are ... Read more
Vision-based path following using the 1D trifocal tensor

Author: Sabatta, D ; Siegwart, R Date: May 2013 In this paper we present a vision-based path following algorithm for a non-holonomic wheeled platform capable of keeping the vehicle on a desired path using only a single camera. The algorithm is suitable for teach and replay or leader-follower ... Read more
