Design and Implementation of an Autonomous Road Crossing Mobile Robot

Zusatztext

Mobile robots have evolved from indoor experimental use to outdoor deployment. This book describes the design and implementation of one such robot - a fully functioning mobile robot intended for autonomous outdoor robot navigation with the ability to autonomously cross roads at pedestrian crossings. It describes how a mixture of existing and new technologies and solutions can be combined to design such a robot. The design is validated by real world experiments where experiments were performed on a real pedestrian crossing in the presence of vehicles and pedestrians.
