LiDAR-inertial odometry (LIO) is a key component of autonomous navigation, but high-dynamic driving exposes two coupled challenges: intra-scan motion distortion and vibration-contaminated inertial measurements. Most real-time LiDAR-inertial pipelines propagate the system state by…
Global navigation satellite system (GNSS) denial can prevent an unmanned surface vehicle (USV) from both finding a distant vessel and maintaining a globally referenced approach. This paper presents AUSLUN (Automatic UAV Search, Localization, and USV Navigation), a fixed-hover aer…
For uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs), estimating six-degree-of-freedom (6-DoF) poses is essential for airspace situational awareness, target tracking, and counter-UAV operations. However, non-cooperative targets usually lack computer-aided design (CAD) models and keypoint priors,…
