Abstract

In this paper, we present an original localization system for large scale outdoor environments which uses a markerless vision-based approach to estimate the camera pose. It relies on natural feature points extracted from images. Since this type of method is sensitive to brightness changes, occlusions and sudden motions which are likely to occur in outdoor environment, we use two more sensors to assist the vision process. In our work, we would like to demonstrate the feasibility of an assistance scheme in large scale outdoor environment. The intent is to provide a fallback system for the vision in case of failure as well as to reinitialize the vision system when needed. The complete localization system aims to be autonomous and adaptable to different situations. We present here an overview of our system, its performance and some results obtained from experiments performed in an outdoor environment under real conditions.
