Contents Motivation & Our goal System architecture Sensor data process • Weighted point cloud • Occupancy grid generation Localization Experiments Conclusion
Motivation Localization • Without map • GNSS based methods • SLAM based methods • Using prebuilt map • Accuracy • Cost Environment • Urban , structured • Relatively large scale
Our goal Suitable map representation • 2D/2.5D representation • Light and flexible Reasonable sensor configuration • Relatively low-cost • General or universal Light localization method • Matching with generated map, not raw data
System architecture
Weighted point cloud Weighting • Ring Compression Analysis based curb detection method [A. Y. Hata , IV2014] • Based on plane model • curbs • building facades • Useful features Featured point cloud extraction Point cloud weighting
Weighted point cloud Example of weighted point cloud • Filter • Road surface • Disadvantages • rise and fall of roads • Moving objects • Other disturbs • Need further filtering
Occupancy grid map generation Properties for each grid • Height gap • Points account • Points weight • Function
Localization Pose initialization • Gps added • Pyramid map matching Localization with maximum likelihood matching
Experimental results Testing platform • CyberTiggo • VLP-16 or LMS-151 on top • Odometer 3D • Core-i7 @2.6GHz 2D
Experimental results Experimental fields • Long distance • 2 scenes
Experimental results II I Results
Vehicle with single layer laser scanner demo Vehicle with 3D lidar Robot with hokuyo
Conclusion Conclusion • Relatively accurate (but not enough) • Light weight • Adaptive approach • Testing and working on products Future work • Extend the method, make it general • Combine with SLAM • Moving objects while mapping and localization • more…
