Road detection is a crucial concern in Autonomous Navigation and Driving Assistance. Despite the multiple existing algorithms to detect the road, the literature does not offer a single effective algorithm for all situations. A global more robust set-up would count on multiple distinct algorithms running in parallel, or even from multiple cameras. T...

Visual based navigation in industrial environments has been a challenge because of the complex and unstructured nature of the surroundings that Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) and autonomous robots have to traverse in a continuous routine in many production facilities. Since natural landmarks are still a huge challenge due to the highly dynamic con...

One of the most important challenges for Autonomous Driving and Driving Assistance systems is the detection of the road to perform or monitor navigation. Many works can be found in the literature to perform road and lane detection, using both algorithmic processing and learning based techniques. However, no single solution is mentioned to be applic...

Data Matrix patterns imprinted as passive visual landmarks have shown to be a valid solution for the self-localization of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) in shop floors. However, existing Data Matrix decoding applications take a long time to detect and segment the markers in the input image. Therefore, this paper proposes a pipeline where the dete...

Rapid development of social robots stimulates active research in human motion modeling, interpretation and prediction, proactive collision avoidance, human-robot interaction and co-habitation in shared spaces. Modern approaches to this end require high quality datasets for training and evaluation. However, the majority of available datasets suffers...

Laser processing is a rapidly growing key technology driven by several advantages such as cost and performance. Laser welding presents numerous advantages in comparison with other welding technologies, providing high reliability and cost-effective solutions. Significant interest in this technology, combined with the increasing demand for high-stren...
