Autonomous mobile robot navigation in a human populated and encumbered environment is recognized as a hard problem to be solved in real-time. Most of the time, robots face the so-called 'Freezing Robot Problem', that occurs when the robot stops because no feasible and safe motion can be found. In order to provide to the robot the capability of...

This paper presents a novel approach for Visual Servoing (VS) using a multispectral camera, where the number of data are more than three times that of a standard color camera. To meet real-time feasibility, the multispectral data captured by the camera are processed using dimensionality reduction techniques. Instead of relying on traditional...
