چکیده
This paper addresses the recent development of real-time visual odometry system based on dual optical-flow systems and its integration to aided inertial navigation aiming for small-scale flying robots. To overcome the unknown depth information in optic-flows, a dual optic-flow system is developed. The flow measurements are then fused with a low-cost inertial sensor using an extended Kalman filter. The experimental results in indoor environment will be presented showing improved navigational performances constraining errors in height, velocity and attitude.

متن کاملPerformance Enhancement of GPS/INS Integrated Navigation System Using Wavelet Based De-noising method
Accuracy of inertial navigation system (INS) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. Before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. In this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. In this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (WMRA) techn...
متن کاملSelf-calibration method based on navigation in high-precision inertial navigation system with fiber optic gyro
A rotary inertial navigation system requires higher calibration accuracy of some error parameters owing to rotation. Conventional multiposition and rotation calibration methods are limited, for they do not consider sensors’ actual operating condition. In order to achieve these parameters’ values as closely as possible to their true values in application, their influence on navigation is analyze...
