چکیده

This paper presents a system of absolute localization based on the cooperation of a stereoscopic omnidirectional vision system and a dead-reckoning system. To do it we use an original perception system which allows our omnidirectional vision sensor SYCLOP to move along a rail. The first part of our study will deal with the problem of building the sensorial model with the help of the two stereoscopic omnidirectional images. To solve this problem we propose an approach based on the fusion of several criteria which will be made according to Dempster-Shafer rules. As for the second part, it will be devoted to exploiting this sensorial model to localize the robot thanks to matching the sensorial primitives with the environment map. We use the dead-reckoning prediction to decrease the combinatory aspect of the matching algorithm. We analyze the performance of our global absolute localization system on several robot’s elementary moves, in an indoor environment.

Self-localization Method Using Two Landmarks and Dead Reckoning for Autonomous Mobile Soccer Robots

We propose a new method of self-localization using two landmarks and dead reckoning for a soccer robot equipped with an omnidirectional camera as a local vision sensor. This method requires low computational cost. Thanks to rapid process, the system can afford to run multiple localization process in parallel resulting robust and accurate localization. An experimental result in the field of Robo...

Improvement of odometry for omnidirectional vehicle using optical flow information

Our research goal is to realize a robust navigation in indoor and outdoor environment for autonomous vehicle. An omnidirectional vehicle driven by four Mecanum wheels was chosen for our research platform. Mecanum wheel has 16 tilted rollers (45 degrees against the direction of wheel rotation) around the wheel, so the vehicle moves omnidirectionally by controlling these wheels independently. How...

How Computer Vision Can Help in Outdoor Positioning

Localization technologies have been an important focus in ubiquitous computing. This paper explores an underrepresented area, namely computer vision technology, for outdoor positioning. More specifically we explore two modes of positioning in a challenging real world scenario: single snapshot based positioning, improved by a novel highdimensional feature matching method, and continuous position...

Simultaneous Localization and Map building paradigm based on omnidirectional stereoscopic vision

This paper deals with the localization and map building paradigm in an unknown indoor environment. We propose an exploration method based on the use of the sensorial data provided by an omnidirectional stereoscopic vision system. The first part of our study is linked with the problem of sensorial model construction with two omnidirectional images obtained by a rigid translation along a rail of ...
