Dynamic Voronoi

This page contains additional files for our publication on updatable distance maps and Voronoi diagrams:

B. Lau, C. Sprunk and W. Burgard
Improved Updating of Euclidean Distance Maps and Voronoi Diagrams
IEEE International Conference on Intelligent RObots and Systems (IROS), Taipei, Taiwan, 2010

Key Properties

  • Efficient algorithms to update distance maps and Voronoi diagrams
  • Consider true Euclidean distances rather than step counts
  • Voronoi lines are thin and well connected
  • 4-connected diagrams to prevent erroneous connections
  • Details in the paper...
