3D Lidar Loop Closure featured image
Robots are all equipped with simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithms that help them build a map of its surroundings. For SLAM to produce reliable results, loop closure detection and correction are essential.
Constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detector is widely used in automotive radar for target detection from the range-Doppler (RD) map. Due to the large target size relative to the range resolution of the radar, the target response is spread in the RD map.
3D Lidar SLAM- Localization featured image
Localization is the process of determining a mobile robot's location in relation to its surroundings. Let's imagine that the area has been mapped out and that the robot has sensors to both monitor its surroundings and gauge its own mobility.
Graph-based SLAM (also known as Graph SLAM) uses a graph to represent the environment and the robot’s pose estimates. It is widely used in many robotics applications like autonomous vehicles, mobile robots and unmanned aerial vehicles.
