Navigation and learning experiments by an autonomous robot

Abstract Developing an autonomous mobile robot capable of navigation, surveillance and manipulation in complex and dynamic environments is a key research activity at CESAR, Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Center for Engineering Systems Advanced Research. The latest series of completed experiments was performed using the autonomous mobile robot HERMIES-IIB ( H ostile E nvironment R obotic I ntelligence E xperiment Series II-B).
