Abstract

This paper compares the use of two high-speed intelligent cameras observing the ground with modern GPS receivers, odometry, inertia sensors and a digital compass for localisation of the large autonomous outdoor robot AMOR. The intelligent cameras were developed for the vehicle and are characterised by cost efficiency and ruggedness.
