Abstract

In this paper we present an autonomous ground robot developed for outdoor applications in unstructured scenarios. The robot was developed as a versatile robotics platform for development, test and validation of research in navigation, control, perception and multiple robot coordination on all terrain scenarios. The hybrid systems approach to the control architecture is discussed in the context of multiple robot coordination. The robot modular hardware and software architecture allows for a wide range of mission applications. A precise navigation system based on high accuracy GPS is used for accurate 3D environment mapping tasks. The vision system is also presented along with some example results from stereo target tracking in operational environment.
