Abstract :
In order to solve the stability of mapping of mobile robot, a fusion method based on Kalman Filter is proposed to reduce the accumulative errors during the mobile motion. This fusion method, which can fuse the sequential scan matching results and odometer measures, is suitable for raw points based scan matching method. In this paper, pose estimation results from raw points based scan matching method are viewed as the observation model, and odometer measures are viewed as the status model. Experimental results are shown to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
