Millimeter wave radar can measure distances, directions, and Doppler velocity for objects in harsh conditions such as fog. The 4D imaging radar with both vertical and horizontal data resembling an image can also measure objects' height.…

Currently, visual odometry and LIDAR odometry are performing well in pose estimation in some typical environments, but they still cannot recover the localization state at high speed or reduce accumulated drifts. In order to solve these…
