Knowledge-sharing techniques for Egocentric Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Teams of humans and robots working together can provide effective solutions to problems. In such applications, effective human-robot teaming relies on being able to communicate information about the current perception or understanding of the environment. In this paper, human-robot teaming on navigational tasks is discussed. The role of the human user will be to specify the goal point(s) for the robot, and also to interact with the robot in the event of perceptual errors. A novel navigation method, Egocentric Navigation (ENav), has been developed based on egocentric representations. In this paper, two knowledge sharing methods are described which exploit the characteristics of ENav. In the first method, robots share Landmark EgoSpheres, and in the second method the robot shares it Sensory EgoSphere with the human user for visual perception correction.

An Egocentric Qualitative Spatial Knowledge Representation Based on Ordering Information for Physical Robot Navigation
Navigation is one of the most fundamental tasks to be accomplished by many types of mobile and cognitive systems. Most approaches in this area are based on building or using existing allocentric, static maps in order to guide the navigation process. In this paper we propose a simple egocentric, qualitative approach to navigation based on ordering information. An advantage of our approach is tha...
متن کاملTowards Egocentric Way-Finding Appliances Supporting Navigation in Unfamiliar Terrain
In this paper, we discuss foundations, requirements and first experiences with a mobile information system that supports, and is ecologically compatible with, human vision-based navigation and acquirement of spatial knowledge during movement through the physical world. The appliance assists a person finding his/her way from an origin to a destination by providing an egocentric (viewer-centered)...
متن کاملBasal Forebrain Atrophy Contributes to Allocentric Navigation Impairment in Alzheimer’s Disease Patients
The basal forebrain degenerates in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and this process is believed to contribute to the cognitive decline observed in AD patients. Impairment in spatial navigation is an early feature of the disease but whether basal forebrain dysfunction in AD is responsible for the impaired navigation skills of AD patients is not known. Our objective was to investigate the relationship b...
متن کاملViewpoint Tethering for Remotely Operated Vehicles: Effects on Complex Terrain Navigation and Spatial Awareness
OBJECTIVE The effect of viewpoint on the navigation of complex terrain and on spatial awareness was examined with the use of a simulated remotely operated vehicle. BACKGROUND The ability to build terrain models in real time may soon allow remote vehicular control from any viewpoint. A virtual tether couples the viewpoint to the vehicle's position and orientation, but shows more of the terrain...
