Finding objects in human environments requires autonomous mobile robots to reason about potential object locations and to plan to perceive them accordingly. ...
In this paper we have designed, implemented and evaluated an approach for searching for objects on the basis of Qualitative Spatial Relations (QSRs) such as left-of and in-front-of. ...
In the experiments, the robot was controlled through the task-level architecture SMACH 3 and the middleware ROS 4 . ...
