In a context of 3D mapping, it is very important to get accurate measurements from sensors. In particular, Light Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) measurements are typically treated as a zero-mean Gaussian distribution. We show that this…

Traditional LiDAR odometry (LO) systems mainly leverage geometric information obtained from the traversed surroundings to register laser scans and estimate LiDAR ego-motion, while it may be unreliable in dynamic or unstructured…

In recent years, Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO) has achieved many significant progresses. However, VIO methods suffer from localization drift over long trajectories. In this paper, we propose a First-Estimates Jacobian…

- Both Lidars and Radars are sensors for obstacle detection. While Lidars are very accurate on obstacles positions and less accurate on their velocities, Radars are more precise on obstacles velocities and less precise on their positions.…

LiDAR odometry is a fundamental task for various areas such as robotics, autonomous driving. This problem is difficult since it requires the systems to be highly robust running in noisy real-world data. Existing methods are mostly local…

Localization plays a critical role in the field of distributed swarm robotics. Previous work has highlighted the potential of relative localization for position tracking in multi-robot systems. Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology provides a…

Radar-based odometry is a popular solution for ego-motion estimation in conditions where other exteroceptive sensors may degrade, whether due to poor lighting or challenging weather conditions; however, scanning radars have the downside of…

Recently, gravity has been highlighted as a crucial constraint for state estimation to alleviate potential vertical drift. Existing online gravity estimation methods rely on pose estimation combined with IMU measurements, which is…

Recently, 4D millimetre-wave radar exhibits more stable perception ability than LiDAR and camera under adverse conditions (e.g. rain and fog). However, low-quality radar points hinder its application, especially the odometry task that…

Reliable odometry is essential for mobile robots as they increasingly enter more challenging environments, which often contain little information to constrain point cloud registration, resulting in degraded LiDAR-Inertial Odometry (LIO)…

In this work, we propose a factor graph optimization (FGO) framework to simultaneously solve the calibration problem for Ultra-WideBand (UWB) anchors and the robot localization problem. Calibrating UWB anchors manually can be time-consuming…

With robots increasingly integrating into human environments, understanding and predicting human motion is essential for safe and efficient interactions. Modern human motion and activity prediction approaches require high quality and…

We propose a real-time dynamic LiDAR odometry pipeline for mobile robots in Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) scenarios. Existing approaches to dynamic object detection often rely on pretrained learned networks or computationally expensive…

In this paper, we propose a method of targetless and automatic Camera-LiDAR calibration. Our approach is an extension of hand-eye calibration framework to 2D-3D calibration. By using the sensor fusion odometry method, the scaled camera…

In this paper we deal with the problem of odometry and localization for Lidar-equipped vehicles driving in urban environments, where a premade target map exists to localize against. In our problem formulation, to correct the accumulated…

Sensor calibration, which can be intrinsic or extrinsic, is an essential step to achieve the measurement accuracy required for modern perception and navigation systems deployed on autonomous robots. To date, intrinsic calibration models for…

Navigating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) through cluttered and dynamic environments remains a significant challenge, particularly when dealing with fast-moving or sudden-appearing obstacles. This paper introduces a complete LiDAR-based…

Ultra-wideband (UWB) time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA)-based localization has emerged as a promising, low-cost, and scalable indoor localization solution, which is especially suited for multi-robot applications. However, there is a lack of…

Reliable offroad autonomy requires low-latency, high-accuracy state estimates of pose as well as velocity, which remain viable throughout environments with sub-optimal operating conditions for the utilized perception modalities. As state…
