(...) I meant the error due to things like refraction around solid objects, reflections, etc. Also - I didn't mean estimating and correcting for it at runtime - I just wanted an idea of what sort of magnitude of error those effects presented.

I've been thinking a bit about using landmarks imitating ants. You should know that ants use different types of self-produced chemicals to mark the places they have been and the paths to follow. Using this with robots would mean using a light sensor (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)
