Multi-robot simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a fundamental task in multi-robot operations. Robots must have a common understanding of their location and that of their team members to complete coordinated actions. However, multi-robot SLAM between Uncrewed Surface Vessels (USVs) and Au

Ego-motion estimation is a core task in robotic systems as well as in augmented and virtual reality applications. It is often solved using visual-inertial odometry, which involves using one or more always-on cameras on mobile robots and wearable devices. As consumers increasingly use such devices in
In this letter, we will demonstrate how Manhattan structure can be exploited to transform the simultaneous localization and mapping problem, which is typically solved by a nonlinear optimization over feature positions, into a model selection problem solved by a convex optimization over higher-order
In this paper we propose a new approach to recovering the relative position and orientation of a pair of platforms moving on the plane by fusing the kinds of estimates provided by visual odometry systems with distance measurements obtained from ranging radio systems. By combining these two complemen…
