  • Publication number: 20230095898
    Abstract: A system for generating a costmap for use in planning a path through an environment, the system including one or more suitably programmed processing devices configured to obtain a map of the environment, acquire traversal data indicative of an ability to traverse parts of the environment, for each part of the environment, calculate a traversal indicator indicative of the ability to traverse the part, the traversal indicator being calculated in a colour space, and colourise the map using the traversal indicators to thereby generate a colourised costmap indicative of an ability to traverse the environment, the colourised costmap allowing path planning to be performed.

  • Publication number: 20200386862
    Abstract: A method for use in performing localisation in a three-dimensional (3D) environment, the method including in one or more electronic processing devices: determining from a local scan performed by at least one laser sensor, intensity data based at least in part on a power of radiation returned to the at least one laser sensor from points in a local point cloud obtained from the local scan; calculating a first intensity descriptor for the local point cloud using the intensity data; retrieving a plurality of previously calculated second intensity descriptors that are each associated with a respective portion of a map of the 3D environment; comparing the first intensity descriptor with at least some of the second intensity descriptors; and, determining a location with respect to the map at least in part in accordance with results of the comparison.
