Abstract:
This synopsis presents Harvey Mudd College�s entry into the 2008 AAAI robotics exhibition. We demonstrated three inexpensive robot platforms on which we have implemented a vision-based FastSLAM algorithm for landmark mapping. As a result, this project reinforces the educational scalability of low-cost platforms: they offer not only a compelling invitation to the study of computer science and robotics, but a means of engaging students in the recent and ongoing work of the AI robotics community.
