Course details
•
SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) Algorithms: This unit covers the essential techniques used in Autonomous Vehicles to create and update maps of their surroundings while simultaneously determining their own location. •
Odometry and Motion Models: This unit focuses on the mathematical models used to describe the motion of an Autonomous Vehicle, including wheel encoders, GPS, and inertial measurement units. •
Visual Odometry: This unit explores the use of visual features such as lines, corners, and edges to estimate the motion of an Autonomous Vehicle. •
LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and Sensor Fusion: This unit delves into the use of LiDAR sensors and other sensors to create high-resolution 3D maps of the environment and fuse data from multiple sensors. •
GPS and Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) Integration: This unit covers the integration of GPS and IMU data to provide accurate location and velocity information for Autonomous Vehicles. •
Map-Matching and Route Planning: This unit focuses on the process of matching the vehicle's trajectory to a pre-defined map and planning the most efficient route. •
Dead Reckoning and Predictive Localization: This unit explores the use of dead reckoning algorithms to estimate the vehicle's position and velocity, and predictive localization techniques to improve accuracy. •
