Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If iterative optimization is performed on constraints constructed from a large quantity of feature points, then measurement precision is improved, but calculation resources and time overheads increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts only the essential plane feature points from the point cloud data rather than using all feature points. By identifying and selecting only the critical points that define plane features, the method reduces the number of constraints needed for optimization, thereby improving calculation efficiency while maintaining sufficient measurement precision for motion pose estimation.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the point cloud data to identify specific plane feature points separately from other feature points. By dividing the feature extraction process into distinct segments (line features, plane features, and selecting only plane features for constraint construction), the method optimizes the balance between having enough constraints for accurate estimation and keeping the calculation load manageable.
2Measurement precision
If constraints are constructed from all line feature points and plane feature points, then measurement precision is improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent extracts and selects only plane feature points from the complete set of feature points to construct constraints. This extraction process simplifies the constraint construction by focusing only on the most informative subset of features (plane features) while discarding less critical features, thereby reducing system complexity while preserving measurement precision.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent applies different quality standards to different feature types by giving special importance to plane feature points. Instead of treating all feature points equally, the method assigns higher priority to plane features for constraint construction, creating a localized quality differentiation that simplifies the overall constraint system while maintaining estimation accuracy.
