A hybrid representation of the environment to improve autonomous navigation of mobile robots in agriculture

L. Emmi et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a localization and mapping framework based on semantic place classification and key location estimation, which builds a hybrid topological map for autonomous navigation in agricultural fields. The approach utilizes a perception system with 2D LIDAR and RGB cameras to identify key locations and working areas, enabling the robot to be located in the topological map by fusing data with odometry. The evaluation of the approach using real-time object detection demonstrates the potential to obtain a simple and easy-to-update map, improve autonomy of agricultural robots, and avoid artificial landmarks.
