LODESTAR: Degeneracy-Aware LiDAR-Inertial Odometry With Adaptive Schmidt-Kalman Filter and Data Exploitation
LiDAR-inertial odometry (LIO) has been widely used in robotics due to its high accuracy. However, its performance degrades in degenerate environments, such as long corridors and high-altitude flights, where LiDAR measurements are imbalanced or sparse, leading to ill-posed state estimation. In this l
