Radio-based methods such as Ultra-Wideband (UWB) and RAdio Detection And Ranging (radar), which have traditionally seen limited adoption in robotics, are experiencing a boost in popularity thanks to their robustness to harsh environmental…
Robust and accurate navigation is critical for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) especially for those with stringent Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) constraints. However, most state-of-the-art (SOTA) LiDAR-Inertial Odometry (LIO) systems still…
In recent years, multiple Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) systems have grown in popularity due to their enhanced accuracy and stability from the increased field of view (FOV). However, integrating multiple LiDARs can be challenging,…
A common prerequisite for evaluating a visual(-inertial) odometry (VO/VIO) algorithm is to align the timestamps and the reference frame of its estimated trajectory with a reference ground-truth derived from a system of superior precision,…
A swarm of robots has advantages over a single robot, since it can explore larger areas much faster and is more robust to single-point failures. Accurate relative positioning is necessary to successfully carry out a collaborative mission…
Reliable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) detection is critical for autonomous airspace monitoring but remains challenging when integrating sensor streams that differ substantially in resolution, perspective, and field of view. Conventional…
