Abstract

In this paper we present a reliable approach for real-time outdoor trail following and obstacle avoidance. The trail classification is done using an off-the-shelf webcam and a pitched 2D laser scanner on a KURT2 robot equipped with an Intel Centrino laptop. This simple setup enables us to follow given pathways of different kinds using a GPS receiver for rough orientation.
