The taste of success: Foraging for cracks on our roads - Netta Cohen, University of Leeds
Advantages and related applications
• Navigation in uncharacterized, variable size, variable
geometry environments
• Vision system can be trained for day/night, cracks, holes,
rubbish, other “defects” or features of interest in an
environment
• Ongoing work: implementing crack repair, both
autonomously and through integration with other repair
robots
