Last-mile delivery robots are usually required to navigate on the sidewalk through a fixed route. The current solutions heavily rely on the image-based perception and GPS localization to successfully complete delivery tasks. However, it is prone to fail and become unreliable when the robot runs in challenging conditions, such as operating in different illuminations, or under canopies of trees or b...
