Abstract Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO) fuses measurements from camera and Inertial
Measurement Unit (IMU) to achieve accumulative performance that is better than using …

This paper proposes a novel self-calibration method for a large-FoV (Field-of-View) camera
using a real star image. First, based on the classic equisolid-angle projection model and …

Planetary craters are natural navigation landmarks that widely exist and are easily observed.
Optical navigation based on crater landmarks has become an important autonomous …

High-accuracy, autonomous and reliable navigation systems are important foundations for
Mars rovers to achieve exploration missions successfully. Based on the motion …

Attitude references are greatly needed for the evaluation and calibration of Inertial
Navigation Systems (INSs), which are widely used in gravimeter, marine, and aeronautical …

This paper develops a novel nonlinear adaptive robust filter called the multiple-step
randomly delayed variational Bayesian adaptive high-degree cubature Huber-based filter …

The autonomous navigation technology uses the multiple sensors to percept and estimate
the spatial locations of the aerospace prober or the Mars rover and to guide their motions in …
