| Abstract | In this paper we present a mapping paradigm for large scale precise navigation that takes inspiration from the bees' large scale navigation behavior. Navigation is performed through the use of two distinct sets of landmarks: global landmarks guide roughly the agent to a place, with local landmarks the agent performs very precise motion to the final destination. The paradigm is equivalent to a map composed of two distinct levels: with the first level, the agent navigates from place to place (topological navigation) following the global potential function. When the agent is close to the place of interest then it switches to a finer map of the specific place represented by a local potential function (second level). The general idea behind the article (2 levels hierarchical mapping and navigation) has been successfully used so far in the robotics literature. By the way, a robot that uses only one sensor, a color camera, and operates in real time with global and local self extracted natural unprocessed visual landmarks has not been presented yet. A prototype of the motion algorithm has been developed and diverse experiments and tests operating with a nomad 200 have been performed to prove the performance of the topological algorithm. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
