Ubiquitous Robotics Workshop- Biological and Bio-Inspired Robot Navigation and Control in Unknown and Limited Visibility Environments

Abstract

Autonomous robotic vehicles have widespread applications across civilian and defense industries and there is significant interest in furthering their performance and capabilities. Over the years, while there has been massive advancement in the performance of mobile robots including navigation in open terrain or under external guidance, several challenges still exist which limit the deployment of such platforms in realistic environments. This workshop will focus on showcasing new achievements and discoveries in this area across the field of biology and robotics. It will focus on the tried and tested artificial and real methodologies identified by biologists and robotics researchers that will help in developing navigation and control solutions for operating in unknown and limited visibility environments, including but not limited to bio-inspired algorithms, biological behaviour investigations, and robot behaviour control.
