In this paper, we present a unified approach for a drift-free and jitter-reduced vision-aided navigation system. This approach is based on an error-state Kalman filter algorithm using both relative (local) measurements obtained from image based motion estimation through visual odometry, and global measurements as a result of landmark matching through a pre-built visual landmark database. To improve...
In this paper, we present a unified approach for a camera tracking system based on an error-state Kalman filter algorithm. The filter uses relative (local) measurements obtained from image based motion estimation through visual odometry, as well as global measurements produced by landmark matching through a pre-built visual landmark database and range measurements obtained from radio frequency (RF)...
We present an innovative path following system based upon multi-camera visual odometry and visual landmark matching. This technology enables reliable mobile robot navigation in real world scenarios including GPS-denied environments both indoors and outdoors. We recover paths in full 3D, making it applicable to both on and off-road ground vehicles. Our controller relies on pose updates from visual...
We present a system that improves accuracy of food intake assessment using computer vision techniques. Traditional dietetic method suffers from the drawback of either inaccurate assessment or complex lab measurement. Our solution is to use a mobile phone to capture images of foods, recognize food types, estimate their respective volumes and finally return quantitative nutrition information. Automated...
We present a system that combines multiple visual navigation techniques to achieve GPS-denied, non-line-of-sight SLAM capability for heterogeneous platforms. Our approach builds on several layers of vision algorithms, including sparse frame-to-frame structure from motion (visual odometry), a Kalman filter for fusion with inertial measurement unit (IMU) data and a distributed visual landmark matching...
In this paper, we study how to build a vision-based system for global localization with accuracies within 10 cm. for robots and humans operating both indoors and outdoors over wide areas covering many square kilometers. In particular, we study the parameters of building a landmark database rapidly and utilizing that database online for real-time accurate global localization. Although the accuracy...
