1A1-N04 Development of an information sharing system among distributed sensors and mobile robots for construction of intelligent spaces

Abstract

In order to build intelligent spaces, it is necessary to know where the distributed sensors are placed in the space. Also, the positions of sensors must be known in a unified world coordinate system. For this reason, we have the system is based on map sharing and matching between a mobile robot and distributed sensors. However the system is subject to effects of the map with distortion and errors. In this paper, we have introduced a system for easily estimating locations of sensors for constructing large-scale intelligent spaces. Especially, position estimation improvement based on more accurate global maps is introduced.
