- Abstract:
-
Given that the traditional iterative closest points (ICP) algorithm easily falls into the local optimum and has a large matching error, a novel double restriction method containing Euclidean distance and angle threshold is proposed. To realize this, an indoor mobile robot RGB-D SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) using a Kinect camera was developed. First, the Kinect camera was used to get color information and depth information for the indoor environment. Through the image feature extraction and matching procedure, the relationship between two 3D point clouds was established by combining the camera intrinsic parameters and pixel depth values. Then, the initial registration was completed using the random sample consensus (RANSAC) algorithm to remove outliers. Meanwhile, accurate registration was completed using the improved ICP algorithm. Finally, the weight was introduced into the selection of the key frames, and the general graph optimization (g2o) algorithm was used to optimize the pose of the robot. The experimental results prove effectiveness and feasibility of the method, and this method improves the accuracy of the 3D point cloud map and estimates the trajectory of the robot.
