Vision-based localization systems, namely visual odometry (VO) and visual inertial odometry
(VIO), have attracted great attention recently. They are regarded as critical modules for …

Robotized intelligent manufacturing is a growing trend in the manufacturing of large and
complex components in aviation, aerospace, marine engineering and other industries. With …

This paper presents a new implementation method for efficient simultaneous localization
and map** using a forward-viewing monocular vision sensor. The method is developed to …

A new fusion strategy is introduced in this article to estimate state for multi-rate multi-sensor
systems with missing measurements. N sensors, which possess various sampling rates …

In this article, we propose a novel optimization-based tightly coupled Direct Visual-Inertial
Odometry (DVIO), which fuses the visual and inertial measurements to provide real-time full …

Despite tremendous efforts made for years, trajectory tracking control (TC) of a
nonholonomic mobile robot (NMR) without global positioning system remains an open …

In this paper, we propose an acceleration-level pseudo-dynamic visual servoing structure for
the nonholonomic mobile robots, based on which we design two different adaptive …

Automatic positioning technology of underground vehicles has become the key technology
for the intelligent development of coal mines. To improve the comprehensive positioning …

In most visual servoing methods for wheeled mobile robots, the camera is supposed at the
center of the robot, while it will bring much convenience for practical use when putting the …

In this paper, an adaptive visual servoing scheme is developed to drive a wheeled mobile
robot to the desired pose, wherein the unknown depth information is identified …
