Optimal View Path Planning for Visual SLAM
نویسندگان
چکیده
In experimental design and 3D reconstruction it is desirable to minimize the number of observations required to reach a prescribed estimation accuracy. Many approaches in the literature attempt to find the next best view from which to measure, and iterate this procedure. This paper discusses a continuous optimization method for finding a whole set of future imaging locations which minimize the reconstruction error of observed geometry along with the distance traveled by the camera between these locations. A computationally efficient iterative algorithm targeted toward application within real-time SLAM systems is presented and tested on simulated data.

Path Planning with Pose SLAM IRI Technical Report
The probabilistic belief networks that result from standard feature-based simultaneous localization and map building (SLAM) approaches cannot be directly used to plan trajectories. The reason is that they produce a sparse graph of landmark estimates and their probabilistic relations, which is of little value to find collision free paths for navigation. In contrast, we argue in this paper that P...

متن کاملBelief-space Planning for Active Visual SLAM in Underwater Environments
Autonomous mobile robots operating in a priori unknown environments must be able to integrate path planning with simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) in order to perform tasks like exploration, search and rescue, inspection, reconnaissance, target-tracking, and others. This level of autonomy is especially difficult in underwater environments, where GPS is unavailable, communication is l...
متن کاملManeuverability Strategy for Assistive Vehicles Navigating within Confined Spaces
In this work, a path planning strategy for both a car-like and a unicycle type assistive vehicles is presented. The assistive vehicles are confined to restricted environments. The path planning strategy uses the environment information to generate a kinematically plausible path to be followed by the vehicle. The environment information is provided by a SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mappin...
متن کاملOpportunistic sampling-based active visual SLAM for underwater inspection
This paper reports on an active SLAM framework for performing large-scale inspections with an underwater robot. We propose a path planning algorithm integrated with visual SLAM that plans loop-closure paths in order to decrease navigation uncertainty. While loop-closing revisit actions bound the robot’s uncertainty, they also lead to redundant area coverage and increased path length. Our propos...
