Next Vancouver Robot Operating System (ROS) Users Group Meetup

Robot Mapping Using SLAM

Thursday, May 12, 2016
6:00 PM
BCTIA Innovation Hub
101 -887 Great Northern Way
Vancouver, BC

Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of creating a map of a space while simultaneously tracking the robot’s location within it. While this initially appears to be a chicken-and-egg problem there are algorithms for solving it, using probability statistics and known reference points.

Our presenters for this meeting will describe robot mapping problems, introduce some clever methodologies for solving SLAM problems and demonstrate the process in our meeting room environment using ROS packages.
