In this paper, we propose a normal estimation method for unstructured 3D point clouds. This method, called Nesti-Net, builds on a new local point cloud representation which consists of multi-scale point statistics (MuPS), estimated on a local coarse Gaussian grid. This representation is a suitable i…
Modern robotic systems are often equipped with a direct three-dimensional (3-D) data acquisition device, e.g., LiDAR, which provides a rich 3-D point cloud representation of the surroundings. This representation is commonly used for obstacle avoidance and mapping. Here, we propose a new approach for
We present an algorithm for registration between a large-scale point cloud and a close-proximity scanned point cloud, providing a localization solution that is fully independent of prior information about the initial positions of the two point cloud coordinate systems. The algorithm, denoted LORAX,…
