Pose optimization is essential for aligning bronchoscopic views with preoperative CT scans in hybrid vision–electromagnetic navigation systems. It helps eliminate the discrepancies between the virtual ...
Dr-PoGO is a radar-based SLAM framework (preprint here). It combines Direct Radar Odometry (DRO) with RaPlace loop-closure detection and a pose-graph optimizer to produce globally consistent ...
Chances are you know the climate is changing and that means trouble. But what exactly is driving the climate crisis, how bad are things now and how much worse could they get? To answer those questions ...
HUAWEI’s upcoming Pura 90 series comes with an “AI Posture Recommendation” feature. This feature uses AI to analyze the scene and help guide photo subjects to make their photos more interesting and ...
Robotic automation is a key technology that increases the efficiency and flexibility of manufacturing processes. However, one of the challenges in deploying robots in novel environments is finding the ...
ABSTRACT: To address the limitations of traditional multi-camera-IMU state estimation systems—namely, insufficient localization accuracy in complex environments and poor robustness under abnormal IMU ...
Even the biggest James McAvoy fan might not have heard of his 2025 thriller Pose until it landed on Prime Video in the UK on Sunday. Previously titled Turn Up the Sun!, the movie skipped a UK cinema ...
Factor graph optimization serves as a fundamental framework for robotic perception, enabling applications such as pose estimation, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), structure-from-motion ...
The Mphanda Nkuwa (MNK) dam project on the Zambezi River allegedly poses severe social, environmental, and human rights risks, threatening over 1,400 families (at least 8,120 people) with forced ...
Following the relative maturity of single-robot Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) techniques, works addressing collaborative SLAM have started emerging lately. Driven by the need for robust ...
In this talk, I will give a high-level tutorial on graphs of convex sets, with emphasis on their applications in robotics, control, and, more broadly, decision making. Mathematically, a Graph of ...
