You Are Here: Geolocation by Embedding Maps and Images
Noe Samano, Mengjie Zhou, Andrew Calway
We present a novel approach to geolocalising panoramic images on a 2-D cartographic map based on learning a low dimensional embedded space, which allows a comparison between an ima…
Simultaneous drone localisation and wind turbine model fitting during autonomous surface inspection
Oliver Moolan-Feroze, Konstantinos Karachalios, Dimitrios N. Nikolaidis +1
We present a method for simultaneous localisation and wind turbine model fitting for a drone performing an automated surface inspection. We use a skeletal parameterisation of the t…
Improving drone localisation around wind turbines using monocular model-based tracking
Oliver Moolan-Feroze, Konstantinos Karachalios, Dimitrios N. Nikolaidis +1
We present a novel method of integrating image-based measurements into a drone navigation system for the automated inspection of wind turbines. We take a model-based tracking appro…
HDRFusion: HDR SLAM using a low-cost auto-exposure RGB-D sensor
Shuda Li, Ankur Handa, Yang Zhang +1
We describe a new method for comparing frame appearance in a frame-to-model 3-D mapping and tracking system using an low dynamic range (LDR) RGB-D camera which is robust to brightn…
