Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for creating a map by a mobile robot based on a laser rangefinder, in particular to a method for creating a line feature map based on a laser rangefinder, and belongs to the technical field of map creation for mobile robots. Background technique [0002] Mobile robots are usually able to locate and navigate based on environmental maps, so map creation is a basic problem in the study of mobile robots. Usually, the representation methods of environment map are: grid map, topological map, and feature map. Grid maps are easy to create and understand, but when the environment space is relatively large, the storage capacity of the map will increase, which will increase the complexity of time and space; when the robot is in an unstructured environment, the topological map will bring It is difficult to locate the robot. For example, it is difficult to determine whether it is the same node through the topological map in places...
