Abstract

Recent developments in 3D reconstruction systems enable to capture an environment in great detail. Several studies have provided algorithms that deal with a path-planning problem of total coverage of observable space in time-efficient manner. However, not much work was done in the area of globally optimal solutions in dense clutter environments. This paper presents a novel solution for autonomous exploration of a cluttered 2.5D environment using an unmanned ground mobile vehicle, where robot locomotion is limited to a 2D plane, while obstacles have a 3D shape. Our exploration algorithm increases coverage of 3D environment mapping comparatively to other currently available algorithms. The algorithm was implemented and tested in randomly generated dense clutter environments in MATLAB.
