On the cover of the Rollin' Stone...

Every year the Journal of Field Robotics has a photo competition to select shots for its cover.  This shot was from one of ASRL's field tests to the Canadian Space Agency's Mars Emulation Terrain in 2011.  At the time we were testing our laser-based 3D site mapping capabilities as well as our main stereo navigation pipeline (network of paths, teach and repeat).  The photo came second in the competition and will appear on the cover of all the 2014 JFR issues.
