Real-Time Monocular SLAM with Straight Lines
نویسندگان
چکیده
The use of line features in real-time visual tracking applications is commonplace when a prior map is available, but building the map while tracking in real-time is much more difficult. We describe how straight lines can be added to a monocular Extended Kalman Filter Simultaneous Mapping and Localisation (EKF SLAM) system in a manner that is both fast and which integrates easily with point features. To achieve real-time operation, we present a fast straight-line detector that hypothesises and tests straight lines connecting detected seed points. We demonstrate that the resulting system provides good camera localisation and mapping in real-time on a standard workstation, using either line features alone, or lines and points combined.

A new feature parametrization for monocular SLAM using line features
This paper presents a new monocular SLAM algorithm that uses straight lines extracted from images to represent the environment. A line is parametrized by two pairs of azimuth and elevation angles together with the two corresponding camera centres as anchors making the feature initialization relatively straightforward. There is no redundancy in the state vector as this is a minimal representatio...
متن کاملMapping Large Loops with a Single Hand-Held Camera
This paper presents a method for Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), relying on a monocular camera as the only sensor, which is able to build outdoor, closed-loop maps much larger than previously achieved with such input. Our system, based on the Hierarchical Map approach [1], builds independent local maps in real-time using the EKF-SLAM technique and the inverse depth representation ...

We present a real-time vision navigation and ranging method (VINAR) for the purpose of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) using monocular vision. Our navigation strategy assumes a GPS denied unknown environment, whose indoor architecture is represented via corner based feature points obtained through a monocular camera. We experiment on a case study mission of vision based SLAM throug...
متن کاملStraight-lines modelling using planar information for monocular SLAM
This work proposes a SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) solution based on an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) in order to enable a robot to navigate along the environment using information from odometry and pre-existing lines on the floor. These lines are recognized by a Hough transform and are mapped into world measurements using a homography matrix. The prediction phase of the EKF is de...
متن کاملLearning Deeply Supervised Visual Descriptors for Dense Monocular Reconstruction
Visual SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) methods typically rely on handcrafted visual features or raw RGB values for establishing correspondences between images. These features, while suitable for sparse mapping, often lead to ambiguous matches at texture-less regions when performing dense reconstruction due to the aperture problem. In this work, we explore the use of learned feature...
