Self-supervised monocular depth estimation enables robots to learn 3D perception from raw video streams. This scalable approach leverages projective geometry and ego-motion to learn via view synthesis, assuming the world is mostly static.…
Optical Flow (OF) and depth are commonly used for visual odometry since they provide sufficient information about camera ego-motion in a rigid scene. We reformulate the problem of ego-motion estimation as a problem of motion estimation of a…
Robust and fast motion estimation and mapping is a key prerequisite for autonomous operation of mobile robots. The goal of performing this task solely on a stereo pair of video cameras is highly demanding and bears conflicting objectives:…

Dynamic scenes that contain both object motion and egomotion are a challenge for monocular visual odometry (VO). Another issue with monocular VO is the scale ambiguity, i.e. these methods cannot estimate scene depth and camera motion in…
