Semantic Mapping and Motion Planning with Turtlebot Roomba
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we have successfully demonstrated the semantic mapping and motion planning experiments on Turtlebot Robot using Microsoft Kinect in ROS environment. Moreover, we have also performed the comparative studies on various sampling based motion planning algorithms with Turtlebot in Open Motion Planning Library. Our comparative analysis revealed that Expansive Space Trees (EST) surmounted all other approaches with respect to memory occupation and processing time. We have also tried to summarize the related concepts of autonomous robotics which we hope would be helpful for beginners.

Simple Mapping and Path-planning with the Roomba
Reactive architectures have gain wide acceptance as a robust and effective architecture design that yields results through the flexibility of its simplicity. Such architectures have made their way into many commercial products, including the popular iRobot Roomba vacuum cleaner. The existing reactive architecture does not always produce results efficiently and by adding mapping functions and pl...
متن کاملRoomba Pac-Man: Teaching Autonomous Robotics through Embodied Gaming
We present an approach to teaching autonomous robotics to upper-level undergraduates through the medium of embodied games. As part of a developing course at Brown University, we have created the Roomba Pac-Man task to introduce students to different approaches to autonomous robot control in the context of a specific task. Roomba Pac-Man has been developed using commodity hardware from which stu...
متن کاملEnvisioning the Roomba as AI Resource: A Classroom and Laboratory Evaluation
This paper investigates the suitability of iRobot’s Roomba as a low-cost robotic platform for use in AI research and education. Examining the sensing and actuation capabilities of the vacuum base led us to develop sensor and actuation models more accurate than those provided by the raw API. We validate these models with implementations of Monte Carlo Localization and FastSLAM, algorithms that s...
متن کاملThe Effect of Semantic Mapping as a Vocabulary Instruction Technique on EFL Learners with Different Perceptual Learning Styles
Traditional and modern vocabulary instruction techniques have been introduced in the past few decades to improve the learners’ performance in reading comprehension. Semantic mapping, which entails drawing learners’ attention to the interrelationships among lexical items through graphic organizers, is claimed to enhance vocabulary learning significantly. However, whether this technique suits all...
متن کاملThe Effect of Semantic Mapping on Reading Comprehension
The research reported here examined the relative effectiveness of semantic mapping, as an interactive pre-reading strategy, on reading comprehension of Iranian undergraduate students (non-EFL majors). It also examined whether there was an interaction between gender and the effect of teaching semantic mapping strategy on reading comprehension. The participants in this study consisted of 120 male...
