Abstract | Scan-matching based on data from a laser scanner is frequently used for mapping and localization. This paper presents an scan-matching approach based instead on visual information from a stereo system. The scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) is used together with epipolar constraints to get high matching precision between the stereo images. Calculating the 3D position of the corresponding points in the world results in a visual scan where each point has a descriptor attached to it. These descriptors can be used when matching scans acquired from different positions. Just like in the work with laser based scan matching a map can be defined as a set of reference scans and their corresponding acquisition point. In essence this reduces each visual scan that can consist of hundreds of points to a single entity for which only the corresponding robot pose has to be estimated in the map. This reduces the overall complexity of the map. The SIFT descriptor attached to each of the points in the reference allows for robust matching and detection of loop closing situations. The paper presents real-world experimental results from an indoor office environment |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
