abstract
Robotic Exploration has evolved rapidly in the past two decades as new and more complex techniques have been created to explore unknown regions efficiently. Exciting advancements in exploration, autonomous navigation, and sensor technology have created opportunities for robots to be utilized in new environments and for new objectives ranging from mapping of abandon mines and deep oceans to the efficient creation of indoor models for navigation and search. In this paper we present and discuss a number of examples in research literature of these recent advancements, specifically focusing on robotic exploration algorithms for unmanned vehicles.
