Localization
Extended Kalman Filter localization
Documentation: Notebook
Particle filter localization
This is a sensor fusion localization with Particle Filter(PF).
The blue line is true trajectory, the black line is dead reckoning trajectory,
and the red line is an estimated trajectory with PF.
It is assumed that the robot can measure a distance from landmarks (RFID).
These measurements are used for PF localization.
Ref:
Histogram filter localization
This is a 2D localization example with Histogram filter.
The red cross is true position, black points are RFID positions.
The blue grid shows a position probability of histogram filter.
In this simulation, x,y are unknown, yaw is known.
The filter integrates speed input and range observations from RFID for localization.
Initial position is not needed.

Ref:
FastSLAM 1.0
This is a feature based SLAM example using FastSLAM 1.0.
