In this letter, we present a robust, real-time, inertial navigation system (INS)-Centric GNSS-Visual-Inertial navigation system (IC-GVINS) for wheeled robot, in which the precise INS is fully utilized in both the state estimation and visual…
A monocular visual-inertial system (VINS), consisting of a camera and a low-cost inertial measurement unit (IMU), forms the minimum sensor suite for metric six degrees-of-freedom (DOF) state estimation. However, the lack of direct distance…
Visual-Inertial odometry (VIO) is known to suffer from drifting especially over long-term runs. In this paper, we present GVINS, a non-linear optimization based system that tightly fuses GNSS raw measurements with visual and inertial…
In this paper, we study in-depth the problem of online self-calibration for robust and accurate visual-inertial state estimation. In particular, we first perform a complete observability analysis for visual-inertial navigation systems…
In recent years, Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) have emerged as a powerful tool for 3D reconstruction and novel view synthesis. However, the computational cost of NeRF rendering and degradation in quality due to the presence of artifacts…
Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are algorithms that fuse inertial measurements of angular velocity and specific acceleration with supplementary sensors including GNSS and magnetometers to estimate the position, velocity and attitude, or…
Visual-inertial odometry (VIO) is widely used in various fields, such as robots, drones, and autonomous vehicles. However, real-world scenes often feature dynamic objects, compromising the accuracy of VIO. The diversity and partial…
The inconsistency issue in the Visual-Inertial Navigation System (VINS) is a long-standing and fundamental challenge. While existing studies primarily attribute the inconsistency to observability mismatch, these analyses are often based on…

Despite extensive research in robust visual-inertial navigation systems~(VINS) in dynamic environments, many approaches remain vulnerable to objects that suddenly start moving, which are referred to as \textit{abruptly dynamic objects}. In…

Recently, the emergence of 3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has drawn significant attention in the area of 3D map reconstruction and visual SLAM. While extensive research has explored 3DGS for indoor trajectory tracking using visual sensor…
We present a method to improve the accuracy of a zero-velocity-aided inertial navigation system (INS) by replacing the standard zero-velocity detector with a long short-term memory (LSTM) neural network. While existing threshold-based…
Inertial navigation computation is to acquire the attitude, velocity and position information of a moving body by integrating inertial measurements from gyroscopes and accelerometers. Over half a century has witnessed great efforts in…
