295 results about "Simultaneous localization and mapping" patented technology

In navigation, robotic mapping and odometry for virtual reality or augmented reality, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of constructing or updating a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of an agent's location within it. While this initially appears to be a chicken-and-egg problem there are several algorithms known for solving it, at least approximately, in tractable time for certain environments. Popular approximate solution methods include the particle filter, extended Kalman filter, Covariance intersection, and GraphSLAM.

Method, device, and apparatus for simultaneous localization and mapping, and storage medium

A method for simultaneous localization and mapping underwater. A robot is equipped with an IMU inertial unit and a sonar unit. When the robot submerges underwater, a buoy connected to the robot floats on the water surface, and the buoy moves in coordination with the movement of the robot. The position and observed velocity of the buoy are obtained by a shore-based lidar. During motion estimation in a SLAM algorithm, when an angular velocity is below a preset angular velocity threshold, the observed velocity of the buoy is decomposed into x-axis velocity and y-axis velocity, and updated as the two-dimensional operating velocity of the robot. The polar coordinates of an obstacle in a map under the coordinate system of the robot are associated with the polar coordinates of sonar data of a current frame by using the Mahalanobis distance. The polar coordinates of a new obstacle are converted to the world coordinate system and added to the map. The present invention has the advantages of not relying on underwater visibility, not requiring pre-installed devices, and possessing good generalization and stability.
