Global localization apparatus and method thereof

Abstract

In an embodiment a global localization apparatus includes a memory storing computer-executable instructions and at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, enable the apparatus to obtain robot pose data of a position and a direction of a robot, to obtain a target image corresponding to a target space where the robot is located from an image acquisition device of the robot, to generate an image map of the target space based on the robot pose data and the target image, and to obtain a global position of the robot based on the image map and a light detection and ranging (LiDAR) map obtained from a LiDAR of the robot.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
