SLAM for Hybrid Mapping

SLAM for Hybrid Mapping
  • Researchers
    • Yong-Ju Lee (Ph.D. yongju_lee@korea.ac.kr)
  • Research Period
    • 2006.7 ~ 2007.10
  • Research Background
    • Indoor environments generally consist of visual features and range-based features. Therefore, a hybrid vision/grid map offers a intuitive and useful map to a human and robot.
    • Both can be exploited together as landmarks for SLAM.
    • Most conventional object recognizers for navigation need the prior knowledge of objects. However, teaching prior knowledge of an object by a human is time-consuming and tedious task.
            
            
                              Environment with both visual and range-based features

  • Research objectives
    • Development of a practical SLAM(Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) method to model the unknown environments through fusion of vision and range sensors.
  • Research Output
