Visual Navigation of Large Environments Using Textured Clusters
A visual navigation system is described which uses texture mapped primitives to represent clusters of objects to maintain high and approximately constant frame rates. In cases whe...

Gamma-SLAM: Using stereo vision and variance grid maps for SLAM in unstructured environments
— We introduce a new method for stereo visual SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) that works in unstructured, outdoor environments. Unlike other gridbased SLAM algorithm...
