1 Robotics Enabling Autonomy in Challenging Environments Ioannis Rekleitis Computer Science and Engineering, University of South Carolina CSCE Oct Ioannis Rekleitis 1
2 Why Robotics? Mars exploration rover (MER) animation Underwater exploration, Barbados Roomba vacuuming robot in action Ioannis Rekleitis Driverless Car 2 TED talk: S. Thrun
3 Present Everywhere At home On the road In the sky (drones) In the fields (agricultural robotics) In resource utilization (ROV in the oil industry) Along power lines Education I. Rekleitis McGill University
4 Robotics becomes affordable TurtleBot 2 AR.DRONE Kinect IMU Raspberry Pi GPS Lego Mindstorm I. Rekleitis McGill University
5 Ioannis Rekleitis 5
6 Robotic System? Sensors Actuators World Ioannis Rekleitis 6
7 Robotic System Plan Sense World Act Ioannis Rekleitis 7
8 Sensors Proprioceptive Sensors (monitor state of robot) Battery Voltage IMU (accels & gyros) Wheel encoders Doppler radar GPS Exteroceptive Sensors (monitor environment) Cameras (single, stereo, omni, FLIR, RGB-d, ) Laser scanner MW radar Sonar Tactile Chemical Olfactory Ioannis Rekleitis 8
9 Perception Sensing the world versus Understanding the world Ioannis Rekleitis 9
10 Three Main Challenges in Robotics How to Go From A to B? (Path Planning) What does the world looks like? (mapping) sense from various positions integrate measurements to produce map assumes perfect knowledge of position Where am I in the world? (localization) Sense relate sensor readings to a world model compute location relative to model assumes a perfect world model Together, the above two are called SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) Ioannis Rekleitis 10
11 Stage, Actor, and Representation World Robot Map Ioannis Rekleitis 11
12 Stage, Actor, and Representation World Robot Indoor/Outdoor 2D/2.5D/3D Static/Dynamic Known/Unknown Abstract (web) Map Ioannis Rekleitis 12
13 Stage, Actor, and Representation World Robot Map Mobile Indoor/Outdoor Walking/Flying/Swimming Manipulator Humanoid Abstract (web-bot) Ioannis Rekleitis 13
14 Stage, Actor, and Representation World Robot Map Topological Metric Feature Based 1D,2D,2.5D,3D Ioannis Rekleitis 14
15 Stage, Actor, and Representation World Robot Indoor/Outdoor 2D/2.5D/3D Static/Dynamic Known/Unknown Abstract (web) Map Mobile Indoor/Outdoor Walking/Flying/Swimming Manipulator Humanoid Abstract (web bot) Ioannis Rekleitis Topological Metric Feature Based 1D,2D,2.5D,3D 15
16 Mapping What the world looks like? Knowledge representation Robotics, AI, Vision Who is the end-user? Human or Machine Ease of Path Planning Uncertainty! 3D Laser point clouds Occupancy Grid Appearance based Ioannis Rekleitis 16
17 Appearance based Mapping 1000Km Trajectories Mark Cummins and Paul Newman. ``Appearance-only SLAM at Large Scale with FAB- MAP 2.0. The International Journal of Robotics Research. November 2010 Ioannis Rekleitis 17
18 Appearance based Mapping Successful Loop Closures False Loop Closures Ioannis Rekleitis 18
19 Where am I? Localization Tracking: Known initial position Global Localization: Unknown initial position Re-Localization: Incorrect known position (kidnapped robot problem) Ioannis Rekleitis 19
20 Localization Initial state detects nothing: Moves and detects landmark: Moves and detects nothing: Moves and detects landmark: Ioannis Rekleitis 20
21 Motion Planning The ability to go from A to B Known map Off-line planning Unknown Environment Online planning Static/Dynamic Environment q init q goal q goal q goal q init q init Ioannis Rekleitis 21
22 Bug Strategy Insect-inspired bug algorithms known direction to goal otherwise only local sensing walls/obstacles encoders Bug 1 algorithm 1. head toward goal 2. if an obstacle is encountered, circumnavigate it and remember how close you get to the goal 3. return to that closest point (by wall-following) and continue Ioannis Rekleitis 22
23 More Complex Path Planning Ioannis Rekleitis 23

30 Highlights: DARPA Grand Challenge 2004: Mojave Desert USA, 240 km CMU Sandstorm traveled the farthest distance, completing km 2005: Mojave Desert USA, 240 km Stanford s Stanley, first place 6h54m CMU s Sandstorm, second place 7h05m Ioannis Rekleitis 30
31 Highlights: DARPA Urban Challenge 2007 George Air Force Base, California. 96 km urban area course CMU s BOS, first place 4h10m Stanford s Junior, second place 4h29m Ioannis Rekleitis 31
32 Safer More efficient Enable people Driverless Car The Nevada law went into effect on March 1, 2012, and the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles issued the first license for a self-driven car in May The license was issued to a Toyota Prius modified with Google's experimental driverless technology. Google driverless car, with a test fleet of autonomous vehicles that as of May 2012 has driven 282,000 km. Ioannis Rekleitis 32
33 Another trend Mobile Manipulation The robots have only interpreted the world, in various ways; the point is to change it Paraphrasing a philosopher of the 19 th century. Ioannis Rekleitis 33
34 Human-Robot Interaction Ioannis Rekleitis 34
35 Conclusions It has been an exciting learning/working experience "My robot is misbehaving today!" I like what I am doing Computer Science New and Dynamic Science Combines Theory and Practice Results are visible Changes the way we live (Robotic Technology everywhere) More Intelligence and Autonomy required In Space In Production At Home On the road Ioannis Rekleitis 35
