Talk:Layered costmaps
Reviewer 1
[edit]The article methodology not only enhances robot safety by minimizing collision risks but also advances the field by improving navigation precision and responsiveness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BK-L023 (talk • contribs) 14:42, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
Review n.2
[edit]The article is clear and well written. I corrected made very minor edits to improve it.
A major comment
- I suggest being more generic and less technical in the article introduction. Instead of delving into preliminary technical details (layers construction, matrix structures..) i suggest provide more general information of the method (e.g. what is the aim of the method? --> do obstacle avoidance during navigation, improve safety... what are the advantages? possible uses? (autonomous driving, mobile robots..) )

- Thank you for your comments! I've added Application and Advantages and disadvantages section to provide more general information. Taiki Shuttle (talk) 14:46, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
Review for Wikipedia:GLAM/PoliMi/2024
[edit]The article effectively breaks down the concept of layered costmaps, detailing the purpose and functionality of each layer. This helps readers understand the modular approach to robot navigation. The inclusion of diagrams and illustrations helps the comprehension of the topic, especially since it is not an intuitive subject. The article references academic papers and technical documents, providing credibility and opportunities for further reading. The high level of technical detail is appropriate for readers familiar with robotic navigation but may be difficult to understand for a more inexpert reader. I think improving the introduction a bit would help a general reader to better understand the topic and would make the rest of content more digestible.
Overall it is a very interesting and well written article, I just fixed the layout of a formula by changing the template, because there was a formatting issue. FedeJ12 (talk) 13:50, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the optimisation! I've added Application and some pictures to make general readers better understand it. Taiki Shuttle (talk) 15:05, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
Review
[edit]Article on an interesting topic, I made changes to the size of the images which previously had the dimensions set directly in pixels. I would recommend explaining better in the initial part how the colors, that do not belong by definition to the matrix concept, are introduced. Wikisosh (talk) 14:22, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for the optimisation!
- I have added relationship between values of matrix elements and grid colours. Taiki Shuttle (talk) 15:04, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
Observations and suggestions for improvements
[edit]The following observations and suggestions for improvements were collected, following an expert review of the article within the Science, Technology, Society and Wikipedia course at the Politecnico di Milano, in July 2024.
The name of the section "After layered costmaps" is a bit unclear. This section could be embedded into a bigger one, which details the postprocessing and usage of the maps. "Applications" and "Advantages and disadvantages" sections could be better named, and could be expanded to include more details references are fair, but could be expanded
