Abstract
The authors present an operational perception system for cross-country navigation which has been verified in both simulated and real-world environments. Range data from a laser range scanner is transformed into an alternate representation called the Cartesian elevation map (CEM). A detailed vehicle model operates on the CEM to produce traversability information along selected trajectories. This information supports a real-time reflexive planning system. The authors successfully demonstrated their obstacle detection and avoidance algorithms on board the autonomous land vehicle at Martin Marietta Aerospace Corporation in Denver. They also propose enhancements to their current operational system.<>Keywords
