Victor Shafran, Gal A. Kaminka,
Sarit Kraus, and Alcherio Martinoli. Coverage Under Dead Reckoning Errors: A Hybrid Approach. In Proceedings
of the IJCAI 2009 International Workshop on Hybrid Control of Autonomous Systems (HYCAS), 2009.
Coverage is a task, where a robot is to move about a given a target area until every point in it is visited. Many efficient coverage algorithms cannot be used in practice, because they assume accurate movements by the robot; unfortunately, real robots have navigational errors. A standard costly solution is to utilize a robot that continuously localizes, so as to make course corrections. In this work we present \sc Trim Sail, a novel hybrid coverage algorithmthat takes as input an exact-movement coverage algorithm, and a maximal dead-reckoningerror bound. It optimizes use of the exact-movement algorithm, so as to execute its coverageplan while minimizing movement and localization costs. \sc Trim Sail guaranteescomplete coverage, even under dead-reckoning errors. We present several variants of\sc Trim Sail and demonstrate their efficacy in experiments using data collected from real robots.
