Inertial and 3D-odometry fusion in rough terrain Towards real 3D navigation

Roland Siegwart, Pierre Lamon

Many algorithms related to localization need good pose prediction in order to produce accurate results. This is especially the case for data association algorithms, where false feature matches can lead to the localization system failure. In rough terrain, ...

3D-Odometry for rough terrain - Towards real 3D navigation

Roland Siegwart, Pierre Lamon

Up to recently autonomous mobile robots were mostly designed to run within an indoor, yet partly structured and flat, environment. In rough terrain many problems arise and position tracking becomes more difficult. The robot has to deal with wheel slippage ...
