This paper presents an integrated approach to the application of Machine Learning techniques for the enhancement of mobile robots' skills. It identi es the learning tasks that can be observed throughout a number of typical applications of mobile robots and puts those tasks into perspective with respect to both existing and newly developed learning techniques. The actual realization of the appro...

This paper discusses the challenge of achieving high bandwidth, distant range wireless communication from mobile robots by way of antenna tracking. In the case of robots traversing rough terrain at moderate speeds, tracking demands high slew rates and large motion ranges due to vehicle motion disturbances. Attaining tracking accuracy, particular with the low mass and power inherent to mobile ro...

We present a relative localization method based on sound source localization for mobile robots in outdoor environments. One robot estimates the relative position of nearby robots by receiving the sound signals they generate. In our work, a device including a buzzer and an array of four microphones is designed and installed on each mobile robot. We describe a technique for calculating the relati...
