Reading material mobile robotics

Mobile robotics

The starting point is the information gathered on the pages connected to the module here in Canvas, linked to below. These pages will list key concepts and questions to think about and includes link to material in Springer Handbook of Robotics or other sources.

• Lecture 9: Locomotion, sensing and perception: 
  • Locomotion
  • Sensing and Perception
• Lecture 10: Localization
  • Localization
• Lecture 11: Mapping and SLAM
  • Mapping and SLAM
• Lecture 12: Navigation
• Navigation

The book Probabilistic Robotics covers most of localisation and mapping in a textbook way (i.e. a bit more accessible than the handbook) but it is not complete in scope and gives much more details than needed in what is covered than what is needed in this course.
