The FLEXnav Precision Dead-reckoning System
Research at the University of Michigan’s Mobile Robotics Lab aims at the development of an accurate proprioceptive (i.e., without external references) position estimation (PPE) system for planetary rovers. Much like other PPE systems, ours uses an inertial measurement unit (IMU) comprising three fiber-optic gyroscopes and a two-axes accelerometer, as well as odometry based on wheel encoders. Ou...
متن کاملFLEXnav: A Fuzzy Logic Expert Dead-reckoning System for the Segway RMP
Most mobile robots use a combination of absolute and relative sensing techniques for position estimation. Relative positioning techniques are generally known as dead-reckoning. Many systems use odometry as their only deadreckoning means. However, in recent years fiber optic gyroscopes have become more affordable and are being used on many platforms to supplement odometry, especially in indoor a...
متن کاملA Helmet-Mounted Pedestrian Dead Reckoning System
Since most persons in emergency service wear some sort of headgear, we investigate how basic navigation sensors could be incorporated into a safety helmet and thereby be made truly wearable. It is well known that the key to solving the generic ubiquitous localization problem is the combination of different positioning techniques and sensor modalities. In this paper, a combined approach of pedes...
متن کاملWearable indoor pedestrian dead reckoning system
We introduce a wearable pedestrian indoor localization system with dynamic position correction. The system uniquely combines dead reckoning and fiducial marker-based localization schemes, exclusively using widely available, low end and low power consumer hardware components. The proposed system was tested with various walking patterns inside a building, achieving an indoor positioning accuracy ...
متن کاملDead Reckoning from the Pocket
We present a novel approach to enable dead reckoning in a scenario with unconstrained placement of a device in the user’s trouser pockets. Utilizing the rotation of the device due to body motion, we estimate the user’s walking direction robustly to different placements in the pocket and without additional body-worn sensors.
