چکیده

We present an improved self-localization estimation algorithm in this paper. The algorithm uses a modified SURF method to extract the interest points, using it to extract the orientation and a descriptor of the interest point in order to lessen the computation time. A robot using this method can estimate its indoor self-localization according to matched interest points. A number of intermediate results will also be discussed. The intermediate results show that the displacement method could correctly match the interest points in two images. Keywords-Ceiling Key Point Extraction; SURF (Speeded-Up Robust Features); DSP (Digital Signal Processor).

A 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 ...

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...

New Adaptive UKF Algorithm to Improve the Accuracy of SLAM

SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) is a fundamental problem when an autonomous mobile robot explores an unknown environment by constructing/updating the environment map and localizing itself in this built map. The all-important problem of SLAM is revisited in this paper and a solution based on Adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter (AUKF) is presented. We will explain the detailed algorithm...
