In the past decade, a large number of robots has been built that explicitly implement biological navigation behaviours. We review these biomimetic approaches using a framework that allows for a common description of biological and technical navigation behaviour. The review shows that biomimetic syst

## An intelligent approach to robot navigation by landmark tracking using computer vision is proposed. Thii approach is based on the concept that a human can reach the destination by tracking the specific landmark in a previous environment. Only a monocular image of the landmark taken by the robot
It is argued that the following three properties are foundations of robust robot navigation: (i) the use of landmarks (and, in particular, the use of a compass sense), (ii) the use of canonical paths, and (iii) the use of topological rather than geometrical maps. Some examples of successful animal n
