Abstract

Currently state estimation is very important for the robotics, and the uncertainty representation based Lie group is natural for the state estimation problem. It is necessary to exploit the geometry and kinematic of matrix Lie group sufficiently. Therefore, this note gives a detailed derivation of the recently proposed matrix Lie group SEK(3)SE_K(3) for the first time, our results extend the results in Barfoot \cite{barfoot2017state}. Then we describe the situations where this group is suitable for state representation. We also have developed code based on Matlab framework for quickly implementing and testing.
