Automatic Generation of Indoor VR-Models by a Mobile Robot with a Laser Range Finder and a Color Camera
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an intuitive method to generate visually convincing 3D models of indoor environments from data collected by a single 2D laser range finder and a color camera. The 2D map created from the laser data forms the basis of a line model which serves as floor plan for the 3D model. The walls of this model are textured using the color images. In contrast to panoramic images where the resolution of the textures is substantially decreased by the panoramic mirror, our standard camera can provide high quality textures at moderate image resolutions.

Automatic Reconstruction of Colored 3D Models
A basic issue of mobile robotics is the automatic generation of environment maps. This paper presents novel results for the reconstruction of textured 3D maps with an autonomous mobile robot, a 3D laser range finder and two pan-tilt color cameras. Building 3D maps involves a number of fundamental scientific issues. This paper adresses the issue of how to fuse the geometry data of the 3D laser r...
متن کاملHOG-Based Person Following and Autonomous Returning Using Generated Map by Mobile Robot Equipped with Camera and Laser Range Finder
In this paper, we propose a mobile robot system which has functions of person following and autonomous returning. The robot realizes these functions by analyzing information obtained with camera and laser range finder. Person following is performed by using HOG features, color information, and shape of range data. Along with person following, a map of the ambient environment is generated from t...

متن کاملA New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion
This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...
متن کاملMobile Robot System Realizing Human Following and Autonomous Returning Using Laser Range Finder and Camera
In recent years, with the development of technology, introduction of autonomous mobile robots to environments close to human life is expected. Examples are shopping cart robots automatically returning to the shopping cart shed after shopping, and guide robots directing the way back to the starting position from the current position in unknown environment. In this paper, we propose a mobile robo...
