The ever-increasing complexity of robot applications induces the need for methods to approach problems with no (viable) analytical solution. Deep learning (DL) provides a set of tools to address this kind of problems. This survey presents a categorization of the major challenges in robotics that leverage DL technologies and introduces representative examples of successful solutions for the described problems. We also consider the question when and whether to use modular, monolithic models or end-to-end DL, in order to provide a guideline for the selection of the correct model structure and training strategy. By doing so, the current role and adaptability of different techniques at different hierarchical levels of a robot-application can be highlighted, thus providing a well-structured basis to assist future approaches.

As we are witnessing the dawn of the artificial intelligence revolution, it is a good time to discuss the system-architecture challenges of the new age of robotics. Most of the disputes are related to the wide variety of cloud-computing arrangements along the questions of why, with what, and how to exploit existing information technologies to cope effectively with the increasing demands. Traditional industrial robot makers are very conservative, relying exclusively on onboard execution. However, the rising user demand for advanced robot skills, such as dexterous manipulation and free navigation in an unstructured environment, has inspired newcomers to break with tradition and move robot software architecture to the next level. Inspired by the talks of Prof. Imre Rudas on cloud robotics, this article highlights some substantial factors of system design and discusses a real-world industrial example from my R&D practice.

Advanced robotics and autonomous vehicles rely on filtering and sensor fusion techniques to a large extent. These mobile applications need to handle the computations onboard at high rates while the computing capacities are limited. Therefore, any improvement that lowers the CPU time of the filtering leads to more accurate control or longer battery operation. This article introduces a generic computational relaxation for the unscented transformation (UT) that is the key operation of the Unscented Kalman filter-based applications. The central idea behind the relaxation is to pull out the linear part of the filtering model and avoid the calculations for the kernel of the nonlinear part. The practical merit of the proposed relaxation is demonstrated through a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) implementation that underpins the superior performance of the algorithm in the practically relevant cases, where the nonlinear dependencies influence only an affine subspace of the image space. The numerical examples show that the computational demand can be mitigated below 50% without decreasing the accuracy of the approximation. The method described in this article is implemented and published as an open-source C++ library RelaxedUnscentedTransformation on GitHub.
