چکیده

The main goal of this paper is to describe the application of two self-localization methods, based on Kalman filter and Monte Carlo fusion of odometry and visual information, to omni-directional soccer robots. The two methods are compared, and the usage of several candidates for the robot posture, provided by the vision-based observation step, is discussed. Simulated and real robot results are presented.

Achieving a precise localization in urban as well as in non-urban environment, a combination of GPS and laser

This paper introduces a localization based on GPS and laser measurements for urban and non-urban outdoor environments. In this approach, the GPS pose is Kalman filtered using wheel odometry and inertial data and tightly integrated into a Monte Carlo Localization based on 3D laser range data and a line feature reference map. By applying to this kind of sensor fusion, global localization as well ...

Adaptive Fusion of Inertial Navigation System and Tracking Radar Data

Against the range-dependent accuracy of the tracking radar measurements including range, elevation and bearing angles, a new hybrid adaptive Kalman filter is proposed to enhance the performance of the radar aided strapdown inertial navigation system (INS/Radar). This filter involves the concept of residual-based adaptive estimation and adaptive fading Kalman filter and tunes dynamically the fil...

Distance Dependent Localization Approach in Oil Reservoir History Matching: A Comparative Study

To perform any economic management of a petroleum reservoir in real time, a predictable and/or updateable model of reservoir along with uncertainty estimation ability is required. One relatively recent method is a sequential Monte Carlo implementation of the Kalman filter: the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF). The EnKF not only estimate uncertain parameters but also provide a recursive estimat...

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping in Maze Solving

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping is the process by which a robot is able to place itself in, and map out its environment. This twofold solution has proved to be a breakthrough in the quest to attain an autonomous robot. However the solution pertains to only a small set of spaces. To improve upon this, efforts are being made to cover not just localization, but also global localization and t...

Low-Cost Localization of Mobile Robots Through Probabilistic Sensor Fusion

Efforts to achieve mobile robotic localization have relied on probabilistic techniques such as Kalman filtering or Monte Carlo localization (Thrun, et al.). These techniques often rely on the use of expensive lasers to provide accurate input data. While they provide accurate sensing, the lasers can cost in the range of thousands. In this paper, a method of wifi based localization for the purpos...
