Credibilist SLAM performances with different laser set-ups

Navigation in the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) domain is still divided between reliable solutions that require heavy and costly set-ups and affordable solutions that still lack performances. By proposing a new method for Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM) based on Transferable Belief Model (TBM), the authors aimed at finding a reasonable compromise for urban environment [1]. This article supports this choice and proposes a comparison between different laser set-ups to expose advantages and drawbacks of this solution.
