Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics XVI, Volume 1 - (Springer Proceedings in Advanced Robotics) (Hardcover)

Product Description

Book Synopsis This book is the first volume of two that present research advances on algorithmic robotics written by leading experts in the field. Algorithms are a fundamental component of robotic systems: they control or reason about motion and perception in the physical world. They receive input from noisy sensors, consider geometric and physical constraints, and operate on the world through imprecise actuators. The design and analysis of robot algorithms therefore raises a unique combination of questions in control theory, computational and differential geometry, computer science and machine learning. Advances in this area have a wide range of applications in manufacturing, computational…
