ODOMETRY NOISE MODEL FITTING FROM FLEET-SCALE DATASETS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17733937 titled 'ODOMETRY NOISE MODEL FITTING FROM FLEET-SCALE DATASETS
Simplified Explanation
- The patent application describes a method for fitting an odometry noise model of a vehicle. - The method involves collecting multiple passes of sensor measurements from motion sensors of the vehicle during a testing operation. - The purpose of collecting these measurements is to measure the motion sensor noise. - The method also includes determining the estimated standard deviation of the motion sensor noise based on the collected measurements. - Using the estimated standard deviation, the method further involves determining the odometry noise model of the vehicle. - The odometry noise model is then used to compensate for the motion sensor noise during normal operation of the vehicle.
Original Abstract Submitted
A method for fitting an odometry noise model of a vehicle is described. The method includes collecting multiple passes of sensor measurements from motion sensors of the vehicle to measure a motion sensor noise during a testing operation of the vehicle. The method also includes determining an estimated standard deviation of the motion sensor noise measured during the testing operation of the vehicle. The method further includes determining the odometry noise model of the vehicle according to the estimated standard deviation of the motion sensor noise measured during the testing operation of the vehicle. The method also includes compensating, using the odometry noise model, the motion sensor noise during normal operation of the vehicle.
