Abstract
A method for simultaneous localization and mapping of an object in an indoor environment, including autonomous location and mapping. The method includes generating a map of the indoor environment and determining movement of the object on the basis of data captured by the object, the localization and mapping method jointly generating the map and determining the movement. Ambiguity between two positions of an obstacle on a map during generation is thus resolved by taking into account the movement of the object generating the map, without the need for complex implementation elements.
Claims15
A method for simultaneous localization and mapping of an object in an indoor environment performed by a device, comprising:
- generating a map of the indoor environment;
- and
- determining movement of the object on the basis of data captured by the object, the localization and mapping method jointly generating the map and determining the movement.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a localization and mapping program comprising program code instructions for executing a simultaneous localization and mapping of an object in an indoor environment when said program is executed by a processor of a device, wherein the instructions configure the device to:
- generating a map of the indoor environment;
- and
- determining movement of the object on the basis of data captured by the object, the localization and mapping method jointly generating the map and determining the movement.
An apparatus comprising:
- a localization and mapping device for simultaneous localization and mapping of an object in an indoor environment, the device comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon which when executed by the processor configure the device to:
- generate a map of the indoor environment;
- and
- analyze movement of the object on the basis of data captured by the object, the device jointly implementing the generating the map and analyzing the movement.
