For autonomous navigation in unstructured environments, we are developing i) learning-aided controls and hybrid modeling, ii) distributed learning frameworks, and iii) statistical models for semantic mapping and static scene segmentation. These solutions are designed for real-time onboard applications in logistics and intelligent transportation, targeting connected robots, autonomous mobile agents, and automated driving systems. Additionally, NODE Lab is working on safe and computationally efficient architectures for distributed motion planning, optimization, and navigation of multiple robots in highly dynamic environments, leveraging distributed sensor networks (DSNs).
