3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS) has shown promising results for 3D scene modeling using mixtures of Gaussians, yet its existing simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) variants typically rely on direct, deterministic pose optimization against the splat map, making them sensitive to initialization …
Accurate LiDAR-Camera (LC) calibration is challenging but crucial for autonomous systems and robotics. In this paper, we propose two single-shot and target-less algorithms to estimate the calibration parameters between LiDAR and camera using line features. The first algorithm constructs line-to-line
Drawing inspiration from biology, we describe the way in which visual sensing with a monocular camera can provide a reliable signal for navigation of mobile robots. The work takes inspiration from the classic paper [3] which described a behavioral strategy pursued by diving sea birds based on a visu…
