MonoSLAM at jderobot
January 9, 2010We’re glad to present the first prototype of monoSLAM working inside jdeRobot platform.
MonoSLAM is for monocular Simultaneous Location And Mapping, a computer vision technique which permits to estimate in real-time the relative position of a moving camera with respect to several landmarks extracted from the environment, using only the image sequence that provides the camera.
It is potentially helpful in visual odometry for robots, specially for those whose mechanical odometry is poor (e.g. legged robotssuch as Nao). It can also be used for augmented reality systems and scene reconstruction from video sequences.
