Publicly available satellite imagery can be an ubiquitous, cheap, and powerful tool for vehicle localisation when a prior sensor map is unavailable. However, satellite images are not directly comparable to data from ground range sensors…
GNSS is unreliable, inaccurate, and insufficient in many real-time autonomous field applications. In this work, we present a GNSS-free global localization solution that contains a method of registering imaging radar on the ground with…
This paper considers object detection and 3D estimation using an FMCW radar. The state-of-the-art deep learning framework is employed instead of using traditional signal processing. In preparing the radar training data, the ground truth of…
Localisation with Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) radar has gained increasing interest due to its inherent resistance to challenging environments. However, complex artefacts of the radar measurement process require appropriate…
This paper presents a system for robust, large-scale topological localisation using Frequency-Modulated Continuous-Wave (FMCW) scanning radar. We learn a metric space for embedding polar radar scans using CNN and NetVLAD architectures…
For autonomous ground vehicles (AGVs) deployed in suburban neighborhoods and other human-centric environments the problem of localization remains a fundamental challenge. There are well established methods for localization with GPS, lidar,…
This paper addresses the problem of vehicle-mounted camera localization by matching a ground-level image with an overhead-view satellite map. Existing methods often treat this problem as cross-view image retrieval, and use learned deep…
Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs) are increasingly being used for complex or hazardous tasks in enclosed and cluttered environments such as surveillance or search and rescue. With this comes the necessity for sensors that can operate in poor…
Neural fields have been broadly investigated as scene representations for the reproduction and novel generation of diverse outdoor scenes, including those autonomous vehicles and robots must handle. While successful approaches for RGB and…
Mobile robot autonomy has made significant advances in recent years, with navigation algorithms well developed and used commercially in certain well-defined environments, such as warehouses. The common link in usage scenarios is that the…
Advancing towards high automation and autonomous operations is crucial for the future of inland waterway transport (IWT) systems. These systems necessitate robust and precise onboard sensory technologies that can perceive the environment…
Relocalization is a fundamental task in the field of robotics and computer vision. There is considerable work in the field of deep camera relocalization, which directly estimates poses from raw images. However, learning-based methods have…
Displaced automotive sensor imaging exploits joint processing of the data acquired from multiple radar units, each of which may have limited individual resources, to enhance the localization accuracy. Prior works either consider perfect…
This paper presents an efficient annotation procedure and an application thereof to end-to-end, rich semantic segmentation of the sensed environment using FMCW scanning radar. We advocate radar over the traditional sensors used for this…
Localization is paramount for autonomous robots. While camera and LiDAR-based approaches have been extensively investigated, they are affected by adverse illumination and weather conditions. Therefore, radar sensors have recently gained…
Reliable outdoor deployment of mobile robots requires the robust identification of permissible driving routes in a given environment. The performance of LiDAR and vision-based perception systems deteriorates significantly if certain…
The problem of localization on a geo-referenced satellite map given a query ground view image is useful yet remains challenging due to the drastic change in viewpoint. To this end, in this paper we work on the extension of our earlier work…
Deployment of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) beyond the confines of sunny and dry climes will require sub-lane-level positioning techniques based on radio waves rather than near-visible-light radiation. Like human sight, lidar and cameras…
We propose a vision-based method that localizes a ground vehicle using publicly available satellite imagery as the only prior knowledge of the environment. Our approach takes as input a sequence of ground-level images acquired by the…
We propose a method for accurately localizing ground vehicles with the aid of satellite imagery. Our approach takes a ground image as input, and outputs the location from which it was taken on a georeferenced satellite image. We perform…
