Learning control and localisation of mobile robots

A current project at the Institute of Robotics, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology is working towards the goal of distributing internal mail in a new office building. As a part of this effort we have investigated new methods in navigation and localisation of mobile robots. The preliminary results hereof are presented in this paper.
