Many applications of Visual SLAM, such as augmented reality, virtual reality, robotics or autonomous driving, require versatile, robust and precise solutions, most often with real-time capability. In this work, we describe OV <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://ww
This article introduces a decentralized multi-robot algorithm for Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) inspired from previous work on collaborative mapping [1]. This method makes robots jointly build and exchange i) a collection of 3D dense locally consistent submaps, based on a Truncated Si…
This article introduces and evaluates two decentralized data sharing algorithms for multi-robot visual-inertial simultaneous localization and mapping (VI-SLAM): Factor Sparsification for Visual-Inertial Packets (FS-VIP) and Min-K-Cover Selection for Visual-Inertial Packets (MKCS-VIP). Both methods m…
This paper aims to leverage magnetic information from a Magneto-Inertial Measurement Unit - an IMU sensor augmented with an array of magnetometers, called MIMU hereafter - in a vision/inertial navigation system (VINS). This ego-motion estimation problem is formulated as an optimization over a slidin…
