Poor Man’s Gyro-based Localization
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present our approach and experiments with equipping a mobile robot with a novel MEMS angular rate sensor (gyroscope) that was originally developed for automotive usage and is therefore mass produced and very low priced. By fusing its measurement results with data obtained from other cheap sources, it is feasible to use this sensor for continuous tracking although it is still affected by a high drift rate. The computational load involved is low enough to run on a standard microprocessor.

Precise road line localization using single camera and 3D road model
Abstract: In the near future, precise road line location data is said to be applied to car navigation system and ITS to increase the driving safety. It is important to maintain road data freshness and accuracy. A MMS(Mobile Mapping System) can acquire this road database, while offering an unbeatable productivity with the combination of navigation, and videogrammetry tools. The proposed MMS, fea...
متن کاملPosition Determination Using Landmark Localization for a Mobile Robot
An artificial landmark-based, automatic navigation system was developed for a small-scale field robot. Several low-cost sensing techniques were involved in the system to detect surroundings and determine the position of the moving robot. Several tests were conducted to evaluate the accuracy of linear distance and angular displacement using dead-reckoning with a gyro-correction, overall performa...
متن کاملNavigation System for Omni-directional Automatic Guided Vehicle with Mecanum Wheel
This paper presents navigation system for an omni-directional AGV (automatic guided vehicle) with Mecanum wheels. The Mecanum wheel, one design for the wheel which can move in any direction, is a conventional wheel with a series of rollers attached to its circumference. The localization techniques for the general mobile robot use basically encoder. Otherwise, they use gyro and electronic compas...
متن کاملMinimal-Drift Heading Measurement using a MEMS Gyro for Indoor Mobile Robots
To meet the challenges of making low-cost MEMS yaw rate gyros for the precise self-localization of indoor mobile robots, this paper examines a practical and effective method of minimizing drift on the heading angle that relies solely on integration of rate signals from a gyro. The main idea of the proposed approach is consists of two parts; 1) self-identification of calibration coefficients tha...
متن کاملParticle Filter SLAM with High Dimensional Vehicle Model, Report no. LiTH-ISY-R-2863
This work presents a particle lter (pf) method closely related to Fastslam for solving the simultaneous localization and mapping (slam) problem. Using the standard Fastslam algorithm, only low-dimensional vehicle models can be handled due to computational constraints. In this work an extra factorization of the problem is introduced that makes high-dimensional vehicle models computationally feas...
