A Novel Approach for Lidar-Based Robot Localization in a Scale-Drifted Map Constructed Using Monocular SLAM

Scale ambiguity and drift are inherent drawbacks of a pure-visual monocular simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) system. This problem could be a crucial challenge for other robots with range sensors to perform localization in a map previously built by a monocular camera. In this paper, a met...
