AutoNavi3AT is a software tool designed and implemented to allow a mobile robot to navigate autonomously along urban roads by the use of omnidirectional vision. AutoNavi3AT uses following hardware configuration: on board Mini-computer, wireless communication, catadioptric omnidirectional camera, laser range finder, and a Pioneer 3AT mobile robot.

AutoNavi3AT allows usersto manage image processing, prediction and estimation of vanishing points, obstacle evasion, capture user events and automatic robot heading calculations.

The results show that omnidirectional vision has fundamental advantages over other types of computer vision by not requiring additional hardware to move the camera around, and providing the robot with a greater amount of useful data of the environment
