Abstract

This paper focuses on the navigation of a moving robot equipped with cameras, moving around an aircraft to perform inspection of different types of items (probes, doors, etc.). Matching CAD model and image features is useful to provide meaningful features for localization and inspection tasks. In our approach two primitive sets are matched using a similarity function. The similarity scores are injected in the edges of a bipartite graph. A best-match search procedure in bipartite graph guarantees the uniqueness of the match solution. The method provides good matching results even when the location of the robot with respect to the aircraft is badly estimated. Inspection approaches on static ports and air inlet vent are presented.
