Autonomous vehicle tech has proven tricky for even the most sophisticated tech developers. But Tesla seems to be staking its future on it.
A framework to improve air-ground robot navigation in complex occlusion-prone environments
Robotic systems have so far been primarily deployed in warehouses, airports, malls, offices, and other indoor environments, where they assist humans with basic manual tasks or answer simple queries. In the future, however, they could also be deployed in unknown and unmapped environments, where obstacles can easily occlude their sensors, increasing the risk of collisions.
