Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics

Rating:
Summary: Almost 5!
Review: Top-level robotics research involves many disciplines: kinematics, dynamics, control, and programming. A growing number of researchers see the key to unifying these diverse fields in robot algorithms -mathematical descriptions linking perception and motion that can operate in the real world to achieve goals. This collection features articles by top-level scientists in theoretical computer science, computational geometry, robotics, perception, artificial intelligence, and mechanical engineering. They present robotics as a field of computation applied to the real world much more than just controlling robot arms! A very technical collection valuable to both researchers and students.
