The need to register data is abundant in applications such as: world modeling, part inspection and manufacturing, object recognition, pose estimation, robotic navigation, and reve...
Geometric reconstruction of the environment from images is critical in autonomous mapping and robot navigation. Geometric reconstruction involves feature tracking, i.e., locating ...
Abstract--We evaluate a technique that uses an embedded network deployed pervasively throughout an environment to aid robots in navigation. The embedded nodes do not know their abs...
