About

Agnieszka Węgierska is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on autonomous navigation, mobile robot control, and the integration of software frameworks for real-world robotic missions. Her major contributions lie in the systematic evaluation and comparison of local planners for ROS-based mobile robots, providing critical insights into the accuracy, repeatability, and performance of algorithms like DWA, EBand, and TEB. Her most-cited paper, "Accuracy comparison of navigation local planners on ROS-based mobile robot" (2019, 47 citations), is a foundational reference for researchers and engineers working on robot navigation in both simulated and physical environments, using platforms such as TurtleBot 3. This work has been widely cited for its practical benchmarking methodology. Additionally, she has explored the use of LabVIEW and ROS for planning and coordinating robot missions, as demonstrated in her work on the ERL Emergency Robots and University Rover Challenge competitions. Her research bridges simulation and real-world deployment, making her contributions valuable for advancing autonomous systems in complex, dynamic settings.
