Estimation, planning, and mapping for autonomous flight using an RGB-D camera in GPS-denied environments

RGB-D cameras provide both color images and per-pixel depth estimates. The richness of this data and the recent development of low-cost sensors have combined to present an attractive opportunity for mobile robotics research. In this paper, we describe a system for visual odometry and mapping using a...
