  1. 1. Experiments with Visual Odometry for Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles

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

    Author : Somnath Balaji Suresh Kumar; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrobatic AUVs; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2; Hydrobatiska AUV:er; VO; Stonefish; ORB-SLAM2; VISO2;

    Abstract : Hydrobatic Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are underactuated robots that can perform agile maneuvers in challenging underwater environments with high efficiency in speed and range. The challenge lies in localizing and navigating these AUVs particularly for performing manipulation tasks because common sensors such as GPS become very unreliable underwater due to their poor accuracy.

  3. 2. Camera Calibration for Zone Positioning and 2D-SLAM : Autonomous Warehouse Solutions for Toyota Material Handling

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Benjamin Bolgakov; Anton Frank; [2023]
    Keywords : camera calibration; computer vision; SLAM; autonomous; navigation;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis is to investigate how well a generic monocular camera, placed on the vehicle, can be employed to localize an autonomous vehicle in a warehouse setting. The main function is to ascertain which zone the vehicle is currently in, as well as update the status when entering a new zone. READ MORE

  4. 3. Monocular Visual Odometry for Underwater Navigation : An examination of the performance of two methods

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

    Author : Maxime Voisin-Denoual; [2018]
    Keywords : Visual Odometry; Orbslam; AUV; autonomous underwater vehicle; monocular;

    Abstract : This thesis examines two methods for monocular visual odometry, FAST + KLT and ORBSLAM2, in the case of underwater environments.This is done by implementing and testing the methods on different underwater datasets. The results for the FAST + KLT provide no evidence that this method is effective in underwater settings. READ MORE

  5. 4. On Vergence Calibration of a Stereo Camera System

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik; Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Sebastian Jansson; [2012]
    Keywords : Ego-motion; Self-calibration; Stereo Calibration; Stereo Camera; Vergence Calibration; Visual Odometry;

    Abstract : Modern cars can be bought with camera systems that watch the road ahead. They can be used for many purposes, one use is to alert the driver when other cars are in the path of collision. If the warning system is to be reliable, the input data must be correct. READ MORE

  6. 5. A Path Following Method with Obstacle Avoidance for UGVs

    University essay from Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Anna Lindefelt; Anders Nordlund; [2008]
    Keywords : obstacle avoidance; path planning; odometry calibration; unmanned ground vehicle; UGV;

    Abstract : The goal of this thesis is to make an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) follow a given reference trajectory, without colliding with obstacles in its way. This thesis will especially focus on modeling and controlling the UGV, which is based on the power wheelchair Trax from Permobil. READ MORE
