Navigation function for Autonomous Vehicle

نویسنده

  • Vincent Groenhuis
چکیده

An autonomous vehicle can navigate by measuring the light intensity in a known environment, using a prediction and correction cycle. This navigation method is not trivial, so I developed, implemented and tested two different navigation algorithms. The simple navigation function works well, except at some locations which depend on te light illumination function. The advanced algorithm is slower, but it stores much more information of the measurements and thus it works in more cases than with the simple algorithm. Finally, both algorithms have advantages but also serious drawbacks and therefore they are not very useful in practice yet.

A Hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS Sensor Fusion with WLFP for Flying Robo-SAR's Navigation

In this paper, we present the results of a hierarchical SLAM/GPS/INS/WLFP sensor fusion to be used in navigation system devices. Due to low quality of the inertial sensors, even a short-term GPS failure can lower the integrated navigation performance significantly. In addition, in GPS denied environments, most navigation systems need a separate assisting resource, in order to increase the avail...
