Intelligent Automatic Object Tracking Method by Integration of Laser Scanner System and INS

Abstract

In the last years Autonomous vehicle navigation has had considerable improvements; however, this technology has not yet been able to effectively be integrated with mobile systems that work inside buildings, houses or without the influence of absolute references such as GPS. It is for this reason that this paper provides a methodological proposal that allows the integration of the use of object detection methods such as YOLO (You Only Look Once) or R-CNN (Region Convolutional Neural Networks), with laser scanning systems for the measurement of spatial coordinates and an INS system to obtain spatial positioning through relative references. This method integrates the principle of dynamic triangulation and the methodological proposal IKZ (Inertial Navigation with Kalman and Zero Update) that allow to obtain acceptable mobile autonomy times in which the sector of interest is re-scanned.
