| Abstract | The Computer Vision Laboratory at the University of Maryland is designing and developing a vision system for autonomous ground navigation. Our approach to visual navigation segments the task into three levels called long range, intermediate range and short range navigation. At the long range, one would first generate a plan for the day's outing, identifying the starting location, the goal, and a low resolution path for moving from the start to the goal. From time to time, during the course of the outing, one may want to establish his position with respect to the long range plan. This could be accomplished by visually identifying landmarks of known location, and then triangulating to determine current position. We describe a vision system for position determination that we have developed as part of this project. At the intermediate range, one would look ahead to determine generally safe directions of travel called corridors of free space. Short range navigation is the process that, based on a detailed topographic analysis of one's immediate environment, enables us to safely navigate around obstacles in the current corridor of free space along a track of safe passage. We describe a quadtree based path planning algorithm which could serve as the basis for identifying such tracks of safe passage. |

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.
