Mobile robot uneven environment navigation with obstacles avoidance

Uneven environments are often characterized by low visibility due to poor illumination conditions and weather phenomena including fog rain snow and hail or presence of dust clouds and smoke. Thus advanced autonomous mobile systems are primarily required for an off-road robot to sense and understand its environment while ensuring at the same time robustness under compromised conditions. Therefore this book addresses the problem of the design implementation and realization of an autonomous mobile robot navigating in an uneven environment. Our proposed study would be useful for real-world robotic applications such as intelligent navigation for motorized wheelchairs surveillance and security purposes in Nuclear power plants where humans are prone to harmful radiations for planetary exploration and every where the robot is expected to encounter rough terrain.
