Novel EKF-Based Vision/Inertial System Integration for Improved Navigation

With advances in computing power, stereo vision has become an essential part of navigation applications. However, there may be instances wherein insufficient image data precludes the estimation of navigation parameters. Earlier, a novel vision-based velocity estimation method was developed by the authors, which suffered from the aforementioned drawback. In this paper, the vision-based navigation method has been integrated with a unique low-cost...
