Abstract
This chapter is an extension of the previous chapter and it discusses how the previously discussed concept of SLAM for mobile robots can be actually implemented in real-life in an indoor environment. The system developed employs a two camera based vision system which successfully performs image feature identification and tracking.
This chapter is adopted from Expert Systems with Applications, vol. 38, issue 7, July 2011, Avishek Chatterjee, Olive Ray, Amitava Chatterjee, and Anjan Rakshit, “Development of a Real-Life EKF based SLAM System for Mobile Robots employing Vision Sensing,” pp. 8266-8274, © 2011, with permission from Elsevier.
