B-spline Surfaces for Range-Based Environment Mapping

IROS 2020poster

In this paper, we propose a mapping technique that builds a continuous representation of the environment from range data. The strategy presented here encodes the probability of points in space to be occupied using 2.5D B-spline surfaces. For a fast update rate, the surface is recursively updated as…

A B-Spline Mapping Framework for Long-Term Autonomous Operations

IROS 2018poster

This paper presents a 2D B-spline mapping framework for representing unstructured environments in a compact manner. While occupancy-grid and landmark-based maps have been successfully employed by the robotics community in indoor scenarios, outdoor long-term autonomous operations require a more compa…
