Abstract

A self-localization technique for home robot is developed for in-door environment. This simple and robust self-localization approach based on Monte Carlo algorithm recovers the robot from catastrophic position tracking failure or kidnapped condition. Position of the robot at different location in the map are determined by using information obtained by laser range finder attached in front of the robot and marker distance measured by stereo vision camera.
