Optical Kinematic State Estimation of Planetary Rovers using Downward-Facing Monocular Fisheye Camera
Sudharshan Suresh | Eugene Fang | William L. "Red" Whittaker
Summer Research work done under Dr. William L. "Red" Whittaker at the Planetary Robotics Lab of Carnegie Mellon University. The video encapsulates the 11-week long program, and was recorded at CMU.
This research problem on Optical Kinematic State Estimation explains a novel approach that implements a vision algorithm to obtain kinematic state information in planetary rovers.
