New algorithm aids in both robot navigation and scene understanding Posted: 04 Apr 2014 11:03 AM PDT Suppose you're trying to navigate an unfamiliar section of a big city, and you're using a particular cluster of skyscrapers as a reference point. Traffic and one-way streets force you to take some odd turns, and for a while you lose sight of your landmarks.

A new algorithm for determining the orientation of objects could aid robots in navigation, scene understanding. |
