13:12, 30 May 2023 Mr. MacKenty talk contribs created page Loop closure (Created page with "Loop closure is an important concept in the field of robotics, particularly in relation to the Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) problem. As a robot moves through an environment, it builds a map of the environment and uses that map to estimate its location within it. However, as the robot moves, small errors in its motion estimates can accumulate over time, leading to drift in the estimated trajectory and the map. The idea of loop closure is to correct thi...")
13:11, 30 May 2023 Mr. MacKenty talk contribs created page Local mapping (Created page with "Local mapping is a concept in robotics, particularly in relation to Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) and Visual SLAM (vSLAM), where the robot builds a smaller, more immediate map of its surroundings, often referred to as a local map. The idea is to focus computational resources on understanding the robot's immediate surroundings in detail, rather than attempting to map the entire environment at once. This local map is continuously updated as the robot moves...")

This technique uses visual information to create a map of the environment while also keeping track of the robot's location within the map.

As the name implies, it's about doing two things at the same time: # '''Localization''': Determining where a robot is located in an environment. # '''Mapping''': Building a map of that environment. What makes SLAM challenging is that it's a chicken-and-egg problem: to know where you are (localization), you need a map, but to create a map, you need to know where you are....")

This error, or "drift", can occur when a robot is using sensors like wheel encoders or Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) to estimate its motion. Both these methods involve integrating sensor measurements over time to calculate position, but small errors in these measurements can accumulate, leading to larger and lar...")

The term 'rigid' indicates that the distance between any two points on the object remains constant over time, regardless of the object's movement or orientation. In the context of robotics, pose estimation often refers to estimating the pose of...")

It refers to the ability of a robot to determine its current location in a map that it previously built or in a known environment, particularly after it has lost track of its position due to an error, disturbance, or after it has been manually moved (also known as the "kidnapped robot" problem). There are many reasons w...")

The term "odometry" comes from the combination of "hodos", meaning path or way in Greek, and "metron", meaning measure. Therefore, it's all about measuring the path a vehicle takes. There are several types of odometry sensors, and they work in different ways: # '''Wheel Encoders''': In many robots, especially wheeled...")
12:53, 30 May 2023 Mr. MacKenty talk contribs created page Object occlusion (Created page with "Object occlusion in the context of computer vision refers to the event where a part or all of an object in the scene is hidden from view by some other object in the scene. In simple words, when an object is in front of another object, blocking it from view, we say that the second object is occluded. For example, imagine you are looking at a photograph of a crowd of people. Some of those people may be standing in front of others, preventing you from seeing the people beh...")

These points are usually selected because they represent corners, edges, or other interesting aspects of the image, and they are used in many computer vision tasks for things like object recognition, image alignment, and 3D reconstruction. When multiple images are used (for example, in a video or a sequence of frames take...")

A keyframe is a frame in a sequence of frames (like a video or a series of images) that contains important or critical data. In video compression, for example, keyframes (also known as I-frames) are the frames from which subsequent frames are based. These keyframes serve as reference points and the frames in between are often compressed by storing onl...")

This can occur for a number of reasons: # Indoor Locations: Buildings often block GPS signals, making them unavailable inside. # Underground or Underwater: Similarly, GPS signals can't penetrate underground or underwater. # Jamming or Spoofing: GPS signals can be intentionally disrupted or blocked using devices known as GPS jammers. Additionall...")

This could be due to several reasons: 1. **Urban Areas**: In cities with high buildings, GPS signals can become degraded due to the "urban canyon" effect. The tall buildings can block direct signals from the satellites or cause multipath errors, where the signals bounce off multiple buildings before reaching th...")
