Over the last few years, research had been conducted on how to develop basic mobility aid for visually impaired and blind people using vision and image processing techniques. However, our research at Geodetic Engineering Laboratory has taken a different vi ...
The development of efficient systems for precise attitude and position determination of airborne sensor platforms is having a huge impact in different remote sensing applications, resulting in higher productivity levels and lower exploitation costs. This t ...
This thesis presents a recent research on the problem of environmental modeling for both localization and map building for wheel-based, differential driven, fully autonomous and self-contained mobile robots. The robots behave in an indoor office environmen ...
When satellite are available, the localisation of a pedestrian is fairly straightforward. However in cities or indoors, dead reckoning systems are necessary to determine the user's position. Our current research focuses on the development of algorithms and ...
When satellite signals are available, the localisation of a pedestrian is fairly straightforward. However, in cities or indoors, dead reckoning systems are necessary. Our current research focuses on the development of algorithms for pedestrian navigation i ...
As demand increases for positioning rescue crews, military users, and individuals with special needs, miniaturized low-power inertial measurement units (IMUs) coupled with GPS receivers and other sensors can provide accurate position in both indoor and out ...
In this paper an approach for localization using geometric features from a 360 degree laser range finder and a monocular vision system is presented. Its practicability under conditions of continuous localization during motion in real-time (referred to as o ...
For annotating a digital image with information from a digital map, features which are visible from a viewer position are extracted from the map. The extracted features are matched with corresponding features in the image, and feature annotations are trans ...
A new highly optimized application, the Real-time Visible Human Navigator, provides the possibility to extract arbitrarily oriented and positioned slices from the Visible Human dataset in real-time on a standard PC. A continuous sequence of slices is displ ...
This paper presents an application where an integrated GPS/IMU system is used for land survey (mounted on a van), providing a significant improvement on the efficiency of the road status monitoring process. Being initially developed for aircraft navigation ...
