Some notes on the use of hybrid maps for mobile robots

• Hybrid maps are quickly becoming popular in the field of mobile robotics. There is, however, little understanding of the general principles that can be used to combine different maps into a hybrid one, and to make these maps to cooperate. In this note, we propose a definition and a classification of hybrid maps, and discuss the synergies that can make a hybrid map something more than the sum of its parts. We illustrate these points with experimental results obtained on a metric-topological map.
