UWB/LiDAR fusion for cooperative range-only SLAM. Proceedings of 2019 International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA), 6568-6574. doi:10.1109/ICRA.2019.8794222 | Abstract: | We equip an ultra-wideband (UWB) node and a 2D LiDAR sensor a.k.a. 2D laser rangefinder on a mobile robot, and place UWB beacon nodes at unknown locations in an unknown environment. All UWB nodes can do ranging with each other thus forming a cooperative sensor network. We propose to fuse the peer-to-peer ranges measured between UWB nodes and laser scanning information, i.e., range measured between robot and nearby objects/obstacles, for simultaneous localization of the robot, all UWB beacons and LiDAR mapping. The fusion is inspired by two facts: 1) LiDAR may improve UWB-only localization accuracy as it gives a more precise and comprehensive picture of the surrounding environment; 2) on the other hand, UWB ranging measurements may remove the error accumulated in the LiDAR-based SLAM algorithm. Our experiments demonstrate that UWB/LiDAR fusion enables drift-free SLAM in real-time based on ranging measurements only. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/141856 | ISBN: | 978-1-5386-8176-3 | ISSN: | 1050-4729 | DOI: | 10.1109/ICRA.2019.8794222 | Rights: | © 2019 IEEE.
