Abstract

The application provides a robust laser-vision-inertial fusion SLAM method, which improves the speed and robustness of system initialization in a degenerative scene by jointly initializing a radar inertial system and a vision inertial system, realizes feature enhancement in the degenerative scene by correlatively fusing laser depth features and vision texture features, realizes degenerative detection and degenerative robust enhancement of the front-end program by a CUSUM control chart based on a sequential probability ratio test, realizes degenerative detection and processing with high confidence, low time delay and high robustness, and finally globally optimizes a multi-sensor constraint output laser-vision-inertial odometer. Through the method of the application, the performance degradation problem of the existing SLAM algorithm without degenerative robustness enhancement in various degenerative scenes can be well overcome, and real-time state estimation and mapping with high robustness and high precision in the degenerative scene are realized.
