Perception of traversable regions and objects of interest from a 3D point cloud is one of the critical tasks in autonomous navigation. A ground vehicle needs to look for traversable terrains that are explorable by wheels. Then, to make safe navigation decisions, the segmentation of objects positione
Contrary to other standard cameras, event cam-eras interpret the world in an entirely different manner; as a collection of asynchronous events. Despite event camera's unique data output, many event feature detection and tracking algorithms have shown significant progress by making detours to frame-b…
In this paper, a degeneracy avoidance method for a point and line based visual SLAM algorithm is proposed. Visual SLAM predominantly uses point features. However, point features lack robustness in low texture and illuminance variant environments. Therefore, line features are used to compensate the w…
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have continually proven their effectiveness in various fields. However, UAVs have not yet matured enough to be used for vertical surface maintenance tasks, such as building inspection or cleaning. To mitigate this issue, this letter proposes a novel design for a coaxi
