When Geometry is not Enough: Using Reflector Markers in Lidar SLAM
Gerhard Kurz, Sebastian A. Scherer, Peter Biber +1
Lidar-based SLAM systems perform well in a wide range of circumstances by relying on the geometry of the environment. However, even mature and reliable approaches struggle when the…
Detecting Invalid Map Merges in Lifelong SLAM
Matthias Holoch, Gerhard Kurz, Peter Biber
For Lifelong SLAM, one has to deal with temporary localization failures, e.g., induced by kidnapping. We achieve this by starting a new map and merging it with the previous map as…
Geometry-based Graph Pruning for Lifelong SLAM
Gerhard Kurz, Matthias Holoch, Peter Biber
Lifelong SLAM considers long-term operation of a robot where already mapped locations are revisited many times in changing environments. As a result, traditional graph-based SLAM a…
Three-dimensional Simultaneous Shape and Pose Estimation for Extended Objects Using Spherical Harmonics
Gerhard Kurz, Florian Faion, Florian Pfaff +2
We propose a new recursive method for simultaneous estimation of both the pose and the shape of a three-dimensional extended object. The key idea of the presented method is to repr…
