Abstract

We present to the robotic community a fully autonomous navigation solution for mobile robots operating in urban pedestrian areas. We introduce our robots and the experimental zone, overview the architecture of the navigation framework, and present the results after 3.5km of autonomous navigation. We expose the main lessons learnt by the scientific team and identify the issues to improve future works.
