Rotating Triangles Landmark for Indoor Multi- robot Localization
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a novel landmark generating method for robust multi-robot localization and tracking. Although the conventional approaches are able to generate a number of landmarks, they often tend to misjudge or ignore some landmark in particular environment. Analyzing those methods, we suggest the new landmark that is referred to here as Rotating Triangles (RT) landmark. RT landmark implemented in intelligent space (iSpace) is shown, and it is compared and evaluated with a landmark based on QR code and ShotCode (QR/Shot). The experimental results show that RT landmark has better performance in terms of recognition score and error.

Map-merging in Multi-robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Process Using Two Heterogeneous Ground Robots
In this article, a fast and reliable map-merging algorithm is proposed to produce a global two dimensional map of an indoor environment in a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) process. In SLAM process, to find its way in this environment, a robot should be able to determine its position relative to a map formed from its observations. To solve this complex problem, simultan...

Even when simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) solutions have been broadly developed, the vast majority of them relate to a single robot performing measurements in static environments. Researches show that the performance of SLAM algorithms deteriorates under dynamic environments. In this paper, a multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (MR-SLAM) system is implemented within a...

This paper presents the implementation of a modified particle filter for vision-based simultaneous localization and mapping of an autonomous robot in a structured indoor environment. Through this method, artificial landmarks such as multi-coloured cylinders can be tracked with a camera mounted on the robot, and the position of the robot can be estimated at the same time. Experimental results in...
