Analysis of flat terrain for the atlas robot [PDF]

open access: yes2013 3rd Joint Conference of AI & Robotics and 5th RoboCup Iran Open International Symposium, 2013
This paper gives a description of an approach to analyze the sensor information of the surroundings to select places where the foot of a humanoid can be placed. This will allow apply such robot in a rescue scenario, as foreseen in the DARPA Robotics Challenge, where a robot is forced to traverse difficult terrain.
