  1. 21. Guardrail detection for landmark-based localization

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för systemteknik

    Author : Nils Gumaelius; [2022]
    Keywords : computer vision; LiDAR; object detection; localization; landmark-based localization; guardrail detection; dbscan; autonomous driving;

    Abstract : A requirement for safe autonomous driving is to have an accurate global localization of the ego vehicle. Methods based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) are the most common but are not precise enough in areas without good satellite signals. Instead, methods likelandmark-based localization (LBL) can be used. READ MORE

  3. 22. Study of hole mobility in amorphous polyethylene via kinetic Monte Carlo methods

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Hannes Aspåker; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a study of hole mobility in amorphous polyethylene using kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) methods together with a novel chain segmentation model developed by Unge and Nilsson, which determines hole localization sites based on torsion angles along the polymer chain. An extension to the KMC algorithm was developed which improves performance by modelinground-trips between strongly interconnected localization sites. READ MORE

  4. 23. Terrain Referenced Navigation with Path Optimization : Optimizing Navigation Accuracy by Path Planning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Martin Gelin; [2022]
    Keywords : Terrain Referenced Navigation; Localization; Particle Filter; Rao-Blackwellized Particle Filter; Kalman Filter; Path Planning; Terrängbaserad navigering; Lokalisering; Partikelfilter; Rao-Blackwelliserat partikelfilter; Kalmanfilter; Banplanering;

    Abstract : Terrain referenced navigation is a method of navigation that uses measurements of altitude above ground to infer the position of the vehicle, mainly aerial or underwater. This method provides an alternative to the commonly used satellite-based navigation. READ MORE

  5. 24. FPGA Implementation of Feature Matching in ORB-SLAM2

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik

    Author : Hannah Lindström; [2022]
    Keywords : Autonomous navigation; SLAM; Feature matching; FPGA; ORB; Heterogeneous binary tree; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) is an important component in solving the problem of autonomous navigation — allowing machines such as selfdriving cars and mobile robots to find their way in the world without human instruction. Though there is a steadily growing body of literature in the field of SLAM, far fewer works currently address using hardware acceleration to speed up this computationally heavy task. READ MORE

  6. 25. Two-dimensional Acoustic Localizer : Proof of concept study for an acoustic surveillance device

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Signaler och system

    Author : Julian Machuca Pihlblad; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Public surveillance is evolving with the progress in technology and with it the fear of privacy breach, the feeling of being watched at all times. This thesis aimed to serve as a proof of concept (POC) for a new type of acoustic based surveillance for localizing gunshots in urban environments. READ MORE
