Next year, the last two weeks in the robolab (but not at the same time for both groups).
SetWalkingVelocity is depreciated since NAOqi 1.22. Should use MoveTo instead.

Another historical SLAM-video, this time navigation a supermarkte by Siemens in 1999. Georg von Wichert: "The history of SLAM seems to get some attention on linkedin (see recent posts of Paul Newman). Here is our contribution from Siemens: A video from 1999, showing the (to my knowledge) first ever product containing SLAM. Our navigation system SINAS was applied to professional cleaning. The video in the previous post shows a field test machine that operated for a full year in a public supermarket. Did it contain SLAM? See this video, also from 1999! Note: Loop closure done several times!"

Downloaded multi-Robot SLAM MIT 2001 video from a post of Paul Newman. Probably based on the paper Cooperative concurrent mapping and localization Paul says in his post: "Writing about the history of SLAM I found some old school material from halcyon post-doc days at MIT. This was the first time we ( John Leonard and I - you can see him I think in the last few seconds) had multi-vehicle cooperative SLAM working - I think pre CSAIL in the old AI lab back in early 2001. ...Then we took it to sea - and the ship sank (literally). But thats another story..... Anyway, wow have we come a long way in knowing where you are since then! Videos aren't this dull now."

Received a video from autonomous driving 30 years ago from the European project Promotheus.
