Vision-based positioning of electric buses for assisted docking to charging stations

We present a novel approach to vision-based localization of electric city buses for assisted docking to a charging station. The method assumes that the charging station is a known object, and employs a monocular camera system for positioning upon carefully selected point features detected on the charging station. While the pose is estimated using a geometric method and taking advantage of the known structure of the feature points, the detection of keypoints themselves and the initial recognition of the charging station are accomplished using neural network models. We propose two novel neural network architectures for the estimation of keypoints. Extensive experiments presented in the paper made it possible to select the MRHKN architecture as the one that outperforms state-of-the-art keypoint detectors in the task considered, and offers the best performance with respect to the estimated translation and rotation of the bus with a low-cost hardware setup and minimal passive markers on the charging station.

Vision based persistent localization of a humanoid robot for locomotion tasks

Typical monocular localization schemes involve a search for matches between reprojected 3D world points and 2D image features in order to estimate the absolute scale transformation between the camera and the world. Successfully calculating such transformation implies the existence of a good number of 3D points uniformly distributed as reprojected pixels around the image plane. This paper presents a method to control the march of a humanoid robot towards directions that are favorable for visual based localization. To this end, orthogonal diagonalization is performed on the covariance matrices of both sets of 3D world points and their 2D image reprojections. Experiments with the NAO humanoid platform show that our method provides persistence of localization, as the robot tends to walk towards directions that are desirable for successful localization. Additional tests demonstrate how the proposed approach can be incorporated into a control scheme that considers reaching a target position.
