5.5. Localization Robotic Algorithms

The autonomous robotics algorithms that a strictly mobile robot perform are mostly a matter of correctly steering the robot. This may seem minimal, but just steering correctly can be rather complex for autonomous algorithms on robots with limited sensor capability. Consider for example, The Cul-de-sac Problem, which is a difficult problem.
