Abstract
In this paper we present a dynamic localization system which allows a mobile robot to evolve autonomously in a structured environment. Our system is based on the use of two sensors: an odometer and an omnidirectional vision system which gives a reference in connection with a set of natural beacons. Our navigation algorithm gives a reliable position estimation due to a systematic dynamic resetting. To merge the data obtained we use the extended Kalman filter. Our proposed method allows us to treat efficiently the noise problems linked to the primitive extraction, which contributes to the robustness of our system. Thus, we have developed a reliable and quick navigation system which can deals with the constraints of moving the robots in an industrial environment. We give the experimental results obtained from a mission realized in an a priori known environment.Keywords
