MorphoNavi: Aerial-Ground Robot Navigation with Object Oriented Mapping in Digital Twin

Robotics 2025-04-24 v1

Abstract

This paper presents a novel mapping approach for a universal aerial-ground robotic system utilizing a single monocular camera. The proposed system is capable of detecting a diverse range of objects and estimating their positions without requiring fine-tuning for specific environments. The system's performance was evaluated through a simulated search-and-rescue scenario, where the MorphoGear robot successfully located a robotic dog while an operator monitored the process. This work contributes to the development of intelligent, multimodal robotic systems capable of operating in unstructured environments.
