Autonomous mobile robot technologies are generating significant interest because of their potential capabilities for future applications on the plant floor as well as in the service industry. Autonomous robots may navigate around laboratories, hospitals, office-buildings, airports or similar public or semipublic places. They may deliver equipment, collect garbage and perform other such tasks. One of the major challenges for the field of autonomous mobile robot research is to develop robust and real-time systems for perception and understanding of complicated real environments as well as for intelligent decision-making with respect to proper actions. This workshop is set up to stimulate discussion and the exchange of new ideas on various aspects of autonomous mobile robot methodologies and applications. The papers are prepared by expert colleagues from Europe, Japan, the US and by researchers involved in the interdisciplinary research project on "Information Processing in Autonomous Mobile Robots (SFB 331)" at the Technische Universitaet Munchen.
