Abstract
Autonomous systems are able to move from one point to another in a given environment because they can solve two basic problems: the localization problem and the navigation problem. The localization purpose is to determine the current pose of the autonomous robot or system and the navigation purpose is to find out a feasible path from the current pose to the goal point that avoids any obstacle present in the environment. Obviously, without a reliable localization system it is not possible to solve the navigation problem. Both problems are among the oldest problems in human travels and have motivated a considerable amount of technological advances in human history. They are also present in robot motion around the environment and have also motivated a considerable research effort to solve them in an efficient way.
