The invention relates to a
handle positioning method and device for sparse features, and the method comprises the steps: constructing a non-rigid multi-sensor joint state
estimation model, and building a non-rigid connection through a camera and an IMU (
Inertial Measurement Unit); performing joint optimization on the visual re-projection error and the IMU pre-integration error in the sliding window to obtain initial attitude
estimation of the
handle; based on the number of visible feature points, a geometric degradation state is analyzed through
observability, a self-adaptive marginalization strategy of
motion perception is established, and a sliding window is dynamically adjusted; based on a self-adaptive marginalization strategy, a prior
quality monitoring and multi-
hypothesis maintenance mechanism is implemented, initial attitude
estimation is optimized, and an optimal
handle attitude is output; equipment is realized based on the method. According to the method, high
pose estimation precision can still be maintained in a complex interaction scene, long-term drift caused by inaccurate models is remarkably reduced, the
survivability under the severe conditions of shielding,
rapid rotation and the like is greatly improved, limited visual information in each frame is efficiently and accurately utilized, and the real-time operation capability of a
system is ensured.
