Abstract

This article presents the problem of building bi-dimensional maps of environments when the sensor available is a camera used to detect edges crossing a single line of pixels and motion is restricted to a straight line along the optical axis. The position over time must be provided or assumed. Mapping algorithms for these conditions can be built with the landmark parameters estimated from sets of matched detection from multiple images. This article shows how maps that are correctly up to scale can be built without knowledge of the camera intrinsic parameters or speed during uniform motion, and how performing an inverse parameterization of the image coordinates turns the mapping problem into the fitting of line segments to a group of points. The resulting technique is a simplified form of visual SLAM that can be better suited for applications such as obstacle detection in mobile robots.
