    Area of Science:

    • Robotics
    • Computer Vision
    • Sensor Fusion

    Background:

    • Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is crucial for autonomous robot navigation in GPS-denied areas.
    • Robust long-term navigation for lightweight robots in outdoor environments faces challenges like illumination changes and dynamic objects.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a Polarization Sensor-aided SLAM (POL-SLAM) system for improved absolute heading accuracy and robustness.
    • To enhance the navigation capabilities of lightweight autonomous robots in complex outdoor settings.

    Main Methods:

    • A tightly coupled system integrating a polarization sensor and binocular camera.
    • Initialization using a polarization sensor to establish an absolute heading angle.
    • An algorithm for eliminating mismatching points and an objective function for bundle adjustment incorporating re-projection error and polarization data.

    Main Results:

    • POL-SLAM demonstrated significant improvements in yaw and trajectory accuracies by 43.1% and 36.6% respectively, compared to pure SLAM.
    • Vehicle tests confirmed enhanced reliability and robustness in outdoor navigation.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed POL-SLAM system effectively addresses the limitations of pure SLAM in challenging outdoor environments.
    • POL-SLAM offers a viable solution for improving the navigation performance of lightweight autonomous robots.
