Flexible Stereo: Constrained, Non-rigid, Wide-baseline Stereo Vision for Fixed-wing Aerial Platforms
[article]
2018
arXiv
pre-print
This paper proposes a computationally efficient method to estimate the time-varying relative pose between two visual-inertial sensor rigs mounted on the flexible wings of a fixed-wing unmanned aerial vehicle ...
The approach is structured as follows: Initially, a wing model is identified by fitting a probability density function to measured deviations from the nominal relative baseline transformation. ...
Furthermore, we wish to thank Lucas Teixeira (Vision for Robotics Lab, ETH Zurich) for providing scripts that bridge the gap between Blender and Gazebo. ...

Flexible Trinocular: Non-rigid Multi-Camera-IMU Dense Reconstruction for UAV Navigation and Mapping
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we propose a visual-inertial framework able to efficiently estimate the camera poses of a non-rigid trinocular baseline for long-range depth estimation on-board a fast moving aerial platform ...
Based on extensive real-world experiments we describe the challenges and solutions for obtaining the probabilistic wing model, reliable relative inertial measurements, and vision-based relative pose updates ...
For ground robots and rotary-wing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), small baseline rigid stereo rigs or depth cameras have shown to be sufficient to enable autonomous operation. ...
