Third Annual Report for Perception for Outdoor Navigation

Abstract

This report reviews progress at Carnegie Mellon from August 16, 1991 to August 15, 1992 on research sponsored by DARPA, DoD, monitored by the U.S. Army Topographic Engineering Center under contract DACA 76-89-C-0014, titled Perception for Outdoor Navigation. Research supported by this contract includes perception for road following, terrain mapping for off-road navigation, and systems software for building integrated mobile robots. We overview our efforts for the year, and list our publications and personnel, then provide further detail on several of our subprojects.
