... allocation Path planning Heatmap construction Mining production depends largely on the availability of information on the types, compositions and location of deposits in the areas being explored. One of the most effective methods for collecting data on deposits is the use of seismic modules, which...

... performing a common mission. Design/methodology/approach This paper discusses the main tasks solved in the process of developing an autonomous UAV group. During the survey, five key tasks of group robotics were investigated, namely, UAV group control, path planning, reconfiguration, task assignment...

... to discuss this issue. Design/methodology/approach To improve visibility, this study proposes a path-planning algorithm based on map matching. Continuous ground images are first collected aerially using the UAV vision system. Subsequently, a global map of the ground environment is created by processing...

...Balamurali Gunji; Deepak B.B.V.L.; Saraswathi M.B.L.; Umamaheswara Rao Mogili Purpose The purpose of this paper is to obtain an optimal mobile robot path planning by the hybrid algorithm, which is developed by two nature inspired meta-heuristic algorithms, namely, cuckoo-search and bat algorithm...

.... In this paper, the four key technologies in self-driving car, namely, car navigation system, path planning, environment perception and car control, are addressed and surveyed. The main research institutions and groups in different countries are summarized. Finally, the debates of self-driving car are discussed...
