Combining Dense Structure From Motion and Visual SLAM in a Behavior-Based Robot Control Architecture

In this paper, we present a control architecture for an intelligent outdoor mobile robot. This enables the robot to navigate in a complex, natural outdoor environment, relying on only a single on-board camera as sensory input. This is achieved through a twofold analysis of the visual data stream: a...
