Mobile Robot Ego-Motion Estimation by Proprioceptive Sensor Fusion
For any mobile robot it is a major issue that of estimating its position into the working environment. Although this task is partly carried out through external sensors, incrementally computing the ego-motion of the robot using proprioceptive sensors still is a fundamental step to obtain an estimation of the robot displacement. In this work we deal with the sensor fusion problem for the case of...
متن کاملCombining PMD and Stereo camera for Motion Estimation of a Mobile Robot
This paper introduces an improvement to the 6D motion estimation solution by combining the Photonic Mixer Device (PMD) and Stereo Camera. The main feature of the stereo camera is the higher resolution of the 2D image compared to the one from the PMD camera. Whereas the depth information derived from a PMD is usually far superior to the result from a stereo camera. This work hence proposes a com...
متن کاملUse of coded infrared light for mobile robot localization
This paper presents mobile robot localization using coded infrared light as artificial landmark. Different from RFID, coded infrared light has highly deterministic characteristics. It is implemented with IR LEDs and phototransistors. By putting several IR LEDs on the ceiling, the floor is divided into several sectors and each sector is set to have a unique identification. Coded infrared light t...
متن کاملInfrared Sensor System for Mobile-Robot Positioning in Intelligent Spaces
The aim of this work was to position a Mobile Robot in an Intelligent Space, and this paper presents a sensorial system for measuring differential phase-shifts in a sinusoidally modulated infrared signal transmitted from the robot. Differential distances were obtained from these phase-shifts, and the position of the robot was estimated by hyperbolic trilateration. Due to the extremely severe tr...
متن کاملMobile Robot Online Motion Planning Using Generalized Voronoi Graphs
In this paper, a new online robot motion planner is developed for systematically exploring unknown environ¬ments by intelligent mobile robots in real-time applications. The algorithm takes advantage of sensory data to find an obstacle-free start-to-goal path. It does so by online calculation of the Generalized Voronoi Graph (GVG) of the free space, and utilizing a combination of depth-first an...
