Visual Navigation in Changing Outdoor Environments

Original language description

The talk will be aimed at presenting robust visual navigation, localisation and mapping techniques for robots that operate in outdoor environments for prolonged time periods. First, we will review techniques that allow mobile robots to extract relevant information from their on-board cameras to create environment maps. We will show how these maps can support robot navigation, self-localisation and planning. Then, we will talk about the challenges that arise from the fact that the environment appearance changes over time, causing any past map to become obsolete. Finally, we will present methods that address the problem of appearance changes from a variety of different perspectives, and point out their main advantages and drawbacks. If possible, we will accompany the talk with a life demonstration of an open-source, ROS-based visual navigation system for mobile robots.
