Surround-view system (SVS) is widely used in the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). SVS uses four fisheye lenses to monitor real-time scenes around the vehicle. However, accurate intrinsic and extrinsic parameter estimation is…

Estimating the pose of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) or drone is a challenging task. It is useful for many applications such as navigation, surveillance, tracking objects on the ground, and 3D reconstruction. In this work, we present a…

A distributed pose localization framework based on direction measurements is proposed for a type of \textit{leader-follower} multi-agent systems in $\mathbb{R}^3$. The novelty of the proposed localization method lies in the elimination of…

The Earth, a temporal complex system, is witnessing a shift in research on its coordinate system, moving away from conventional static positioning toward embracing dynamic modeling. Early positioning concentrates on static natural…

A recent series of works has shown that initialization-free BA can be achieved using pseudo Object Space Error (pOSE) as a surrogate objective. The initial reconstruction-step optimizes an objective where all terms are projectively…

Using the "statite," or static-satelite, concept -- an artificial satellite capable of hovering in place using a solar sail -- this work proposes to create a dynamic orbital slingshot in anticipation of Interstellar Objects (ISOs) passing…

We present a novel technique to estimate the 6D pose of objects from single images where the 3D geometry of the object is only given approximately and not as a precise 3D model. To achieve this, we employ a dense 2D-to-3D correspondence…

Visual degradation in underwater environments poses unique and significant challenges, which distinguishes underwater SLAM from popular vision-based SLAM on the ground. In this paper, we propose RUSSO, a robust underwater SLAM system which…

Pose estimation-guided unseen object 6-DoF robotic manipulation is a key task in robotics. However, the scalability of current pose estimation methods to unseen objects remains a fundamental challenge, as they generally rely on CAD models…

Accurate camera pose estimation result is essential for visual SLAM (VSLAM). This paper presents a novel pose correction method to improve the accuracy of the VSLAM system. Firstly, the relationship between the camera pose estimation error…

We present ViSTA-SLAM as a real-time monocular visual SLAM system that operates without requiring camera intrinsics, making it broadly applicable across diverse camera setups. At its core, the system employs a lightweight symmetric two-view…

As the popularity of on-orbit operations grows, so does the need for precise navigation around unknown resident space objects (RSOs) such as other spacecraft, orbital debris, and asteroids. The use of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping…

Due to the difficulty of replicating the real conditions during training, supervised algorithms for spacecraft pose estimation experience a drop in performance when trained on synthetic data and applied to real operational data. To address…

Mega-constellations in Low Earth Orbit have the potential to revolutionise worldwide internet access. The concomitant potential of these mega-constellations to impact space sustainability, however, has prompted concern from space actors as…

The collaborative visual perception of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) has increasingly become a research hotspot. Compared to a single UAV equipped with a short-baseline stereo camera, multi-UAV collaborative vision offers a wide…

Efficient, accurate, and flexible relative localization is crucial in air-ground collaborative tasks. However, current approaches for robot relative localization are primarily realized in the form of distributed multi-robot SLAM systems…

Successful navigation of a rigid-body traveling with six degrees of freedom (6 DoF) requires accurate estimation of attitude , position, and linear velocity. The true navigation dynamics are highly nonlinear and are modeled on the matrix…

The problem of identifying the 3D pose of a known object from a given 2D image has important applications in Computer Vision. Our proposed method of registering a 3D model of a known object on a given 2D photo of the object has numerous…

Estimating metric relative camera pose from a pair of images is of great importance for 3D reconstruction and localisation. However, conventional two-view pose estimation methods are not metric, with camera translation known only up to a…

In this paper we consider a collection of relative pose problems which arise naturally in applications for visual indoor UAV navigation. We focus on cases where additional information from an onboard IMU is available and thus provides a…
