  2. Overview • Introduction • Integrated Positioning System • Inertial Navigation • Stereo Vision • Real time Framework • Experimental Results • Conclusions and Outlook Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  3. Motivation • Navigation • Determination of 6 DoF (Position, Attitude) • Path planning, collision avoidance, … Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  4. Introduction • Assumption: • No single technology is able toprovide accurate position and attitude • Multi-sensor approach is needed • DLR research aims to: • Generic developments • Indoor/Outdoor capability • No infrastructure/external referencing • No maps (unknown environments) • No a priori assumptions • Passive system • Real time Fusion ?

  5. Inertial Navigation - Inertial Measurement Unit • Technology: inertial navigation, based on dead reckoning • Core component: Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) • Angular velocity [deg/s] • Accelerations [m/s2] • Microelectromechanical System IMU (MEMS) • Small • Lightweight • Low cost • Low Energy consumption • Very robust • Already widely used Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  6. Inertial Navigation - Mechanization • Strapdown mechanization for IMU integration Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  7. Inertial Navigation - Mechanization • Strapdown mechanization for IMU integration • Integration • Bias  Drift • Noise  Random Walk • MEMS-IMUs aggravate the problem • High noise • Less stable bias • Less stable scale factors • g-dependent errors • Aiding systems are necessary! • GPS/Galileo • Camera (stereo vision) • … Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  8. Stereo Vision – Visual Odometry • Extraction of natural feature points • Matching using epipolargeometry toconstrain the correspondence problem • Triangulating image points andto get object point • Mapping of an object point: • Prediction: • Matching and pose estimation with: Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  12. Experimental Results – Navigation • Unknown indoor environment • Path of about 317 m • Covering 4 floors • Closed loop for evaluation • 21 similar runs • Tracker uses about 60 Features • Frame to frame accuracy: 5 mm/0.2 deg (2 mm/0.1 deg for viewing axis) • Final distance error < 1% of total path length Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  14. Experimental Results – 3D Point Cloud • Parallel processing chain with matching with Semi Global Matching (SGM) • Combined with navigation solution to generate 3D point cloud • not real time yet Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown

  15. Conclusion • A framework for multi-sensor navigation was presented • The framework was applied for visual aided inertial navigation withlow cost MEMS-components and stereo vision • Accuracy of < 1% of the total path length (over 21 runs) • Low textured scenes cause short periods of pure inertial navigation • Uncompensated IMU errors (scale error, g-sensitivity, …) • Additional processing of a high density 3D point cloud Accuracy Evaluation of Stereo Vision Aided Inertial Navigation for Indoor Environments > Denis Grießbach > ISPRS 2013 > Capetown
