This letter presents Switch-SLAM, switching-based LiDAR-inertial-visual SLAM for degenerate environments, designed to tackle the challenges in degenerate environments for LiDAR and visual SLAM. Switch-SLAM achieves high robustness and accuracy by utilizing a switching structure that transitions from
In this study, we present a method for all-around depth estimation from multiple omnidirectional images for indoor environments. In particular, we focus on plane-sweeping stereo as the method for depth estimation from the images. We propose a new icosahedron-based representation and ConvNets for omn…
Spherical cameras, which can acquire all-round information, are effective to estimate rotation for robotic applications. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks have shown great robustness in solving such regression problems. However they are designed for planar images and cannot deal with the non-u…
