Abstract

Various tools are now available to assist the roboticist in developing autonomy algorithms for tasks such as path planning or collision avoidance. Many tools support the integration of live or simulated RGB cameras, LIDAR, radar, and IMU sensors. This paper will describe adding an RF sensor. The proposed RF sensor detects radio and locates emitters in the environment for the purpose of collision avoidance. We outline an approach to share data to help locate and avoid collisions. The protocol is designed to maximize safety, privacy, security, timeliness, and other desirable properties discussed in the paper. Preliminary results are shown to illustrate the concepts.
