Mobile robots in unstructured, mapless environments must rely on an obstacle avoidance module to navigate safely. The standard avoidance techniques estimate the locations of obstacles with respect to the robot but are unaware of the obstacles’ identities. Consequently, the robot cannot take advantage of semantic information about obstacles when making decisions about how to navigate. We propose an...
