An Attention-Based Odometry Framework for Multisensory Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs)

open access: yesDrones, 2023
Recently, deep learning methods and multisensory fusion have been applied to address odometry challenges in unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs). In this paper, we propose an end-to-end visual-lidar-inertial odometry framework to enhance the accuracy of pose ...

High‐Speed Altitude Regulation With Neuromorphic Camera and Lightweight Embedded Computation

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Neuromorphic cameras deliver rapid, high‐dynamic‐range sensing but overwhelm embedded processors at high speeds. This work presents a lightweight, optimized Lucas–Kanade optical flow method with parallelization, gyroscopic derotation, and adaptive event slicing.

Visual and Visual‐Inertial SLAM Based on Enhanced Deep Learning Features and Motion Smoothness Constraints

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A visual and visual‐inertial simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm, leveraging enhanced deep learning features and motion smoothness constraints, is proposed in this research work. This method retains the advantages of geometry‐based SLAM methods while effectively utilizing the powerful representational capabilities of data‐driven ...

Edge-Direct Visual Odometry

open access: yesCoRR, 2019
In this paper we propose an edge-direct visual odometry algorithm that efficiently utilizes edge pixels to find the relative pose that minimizes the photometric error between images. Prior work on exploiting edge pixels instead treats edges as features and employ various techniques to match edge lines or pixels, which adds unnecessary complexity ...

Omnidirectional visual odometry for a planetary rover [PDF]

open access: yes2004 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems (IROS) (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37566), 2005
Position estimation for planetary rovers has been typically limited to odometry based on proprioceptive measurements such as the integration of distance traveled and measurement of heading change. Here we present and compare two methods of online visual odometry suited for planetary rovers. Both methods use omnidirectional imagery to estimate motion of

Implementation and experimental verification of a 3D-to-2D Visual Odometry Algorithm for real-time measurements of a vehicle pose [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
This work describes the implementation of a software for real-time vehicle pose reconstruction using stereo visual odometry algorithms. We firstly guess motion by a linear 2D-to-3D method solving a PnP problem embedded within a RANSAC process to remove ...

GPS-DENIED GEO-LOCALISATION USING VISUAL ODOMETRY [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2016
The primary method for geo-localization is based on GPS which has issues of localization accuracy, power consumption, and unavailability. This paper proposes a novel approach to geo-localization in a GPS-denied environment for a mobile platform.
