Navigating through a workspace is much harder for robots than it may seem at first. But with AI and machine learning, robot mobility improves on several fronts. Here are the specifics of how machine learning enhances robot navigation.
Roborealm has an interesting tutorial on using machine vision for obstacle avoidance in ground-based vehicles. The tutorial shows a series of image processing steps which can be chained together to detect the "highest" point in an image, based on the ground color. Presumably, that high…
