Zebedee: Design of a Spring-Mounted 3-D Range Sensor with Application to Mobile Mapping
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the six-degree-of-freedom trajectory of a passive spring-mounted range sensor can be accurately estimated from laser range data and industrial-grade inertial measurements in real time and that a quality 3-D point cloud map can be generated concurrently using the same data.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Introduction to Inertial and Visual Sensing
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a tutorial introduction to two important senses for biological and robotic systems -inertial and visual perception, and discuss the complementarity of these sensors, describe some fundamental approaches to fusing their outputs and survey the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fusion of IMU and Vision for Absolute Scale Estimation in Monocular SLAM
TL;DR: Two different approaches to estimate the unknown scale parameter in a monocular SLAM framework are presented and compared, which does not depend on known patterns in the vision part nor a complex temporal synchronization between the visual and inertial sensor.

System and method for stabilizing an image
Shamir Inbar,Gavriel Davidov +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a system for producing a stabilized image of a scene viewed by an image detector, the image detector detecting a plurality of images of the scene, the scene detector being supported by gimbals, the gimbal system including an angular movement detection device firmly coupled with the image sensor, and a processor coupled with an angular motion detection device and with the sensor.

Unmanned aerial vehicle for internet of everything: Opportunities and challenges
TL;DR: A UAV-enabled IoE (Ue-IoE) solution is introduced by exploiting UAVs’s mobility, in which it is shown that Ue-ioE can greatly enhance the scalability, intelligence and diversity of IoE.
