A novel simultaneous localization and radio mapping (SLARM) framework for communication-aware connected robots in the unknown indoor environment is proposed, where the simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm and the global geographic map recovery (GGMR) algorithm are leveraged to simultaneously construct a geographic map and a radio map named a channel power gain map. Specifically, the geographic map contains the information of a precise layout of obstacles and passable regions, and the radio map characterizes the position-dependent maximum expected channel power gain between the access point and the connected robot. Numerical results show that: 1) The pre-defined resolution in the SLAM algorithm and the proposed GGMR algorithm significantly affect the accuracy of the constructed radio map; and 2) The accuracy of radio map constructed by the SLARM framework is more than 78.78% when the resolution value smaller than 0.15m, and the accuracy reaches 91.95% when the resolution value is pre-defined as 0.05m.

We present the first fully distributed multi-robot system for dense metric-semantic Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). Our system, dubbed Kimera-Multi, is implemented by a team of robots equipped with visual-inertial sensors, and builds a
3D mesh model of the environment in real-time, where each face of the mesh is annotated with a semantic label (e.g., building, road, objects). In Kimera-Multi, each robot builds a local trajectory estimate and a local mesh using Kimera. Then, when two robots are within communication range, they initiate a distributed place recognition and robust pose graph optimization protocol with a novel incremental maximum clique outlier rejection; the protocol allows the robots to improve their local trajectory estimates by leveraging inter-robot loop closures. Finally, each robot uses its improved trajectory estimate to correct the local mesh using mesh deformation techniques. We demonstrate Kimera-Multi in photo-realistic simulations and real data. Kimera-Multi (i) is able to build accurate 3D metric-semantic meshes, (ii) is robust to incorrect loop closures while requiring less computation than state-of-the-art distributed SLAM back-ends, and (iii) is efficient, both in terms of computation at each robot as well as communication bandwidth.
We present an approach for multi-robot consistent distributed localization and semantic mapping in an unknown environment, considering scenarios with classification ambiguity, where objects visual appearance generally varies with viewpoint. Our appro
ach addresses such a setting by maintaining a distributed posterior hybrid belief over continuous localization and discrete classification variables. In particular, we utilize a viewpoint-dependent classifier model to leverage the coupling between semantics and geometry. Moreover, our approach yields a consistent estimation of both continuous and discrete variables, with the latter being addressed for the first time, to the best of our knowledge. We evaluate the performance of our approach in a multi-robot semantic SLAM simulation and in a real-world experiment, demonstrating an increase in both classification and localization accuracy compared to maintaining a hybrid belief using local information only.
Submodular maximization has been widely used in many multi-robot task planning problems including information gathering, exploration, and target tracking. However, the interplay between submodular maximization and communication is rarely explored in
the multi-robot setting. In many cases, maximizing the submodular objective may drive the robots in a way so as to disconnect the communication network. Driven by such observations, in this paper, we consider the problem of maximizing submodular function with connectivity constraints. Specifically, we propose a problem called Communication-aware Submodular Maximization (CSM), in which communication maintenance and submodular maximization are jointly considered in the decision-making process. One heuristic algorithm that consists of two stages, i.e. textit{topology generation} and textit{deviation minimization} is proposed. We validate the formulation and algorithm through numerical simulation. We find that our algorithm on average suffers only slightly performance decrease compared to the pure greedy strategy.
Due to the complicated procedure and costly hardware, Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) has been heavily dependent on public datasets for drill and evaluation, leading to many impressive demos and good benchmark scores. However, with a hug
e contrast, SLAM is still struggling on the way towards mature deployment, which sounds a warning: some of the datasets are overexposed, causing biased usage and evaluation. This raises the problem on how to comprehensively access the existing datasets and correctly select them. Moreover, limitations do exist in current datasets, then how to build new ones and which directions to go? Nevertheless, a comprehensive survey which can tackle the above issues does not exist yet, while urgently demanded by the community. To fill the gap, this paper strives to cover a range of cohesive topics about SLAM related datasets, including general collection methodology and fundamental characteristic dimensions, SLAM related tasks taxonomy and datasets categorization, introduction of state-of-the-arts, overview and comparison of existing datasets, review of evaluation criteria, and analyses and discussions about current limitations and future directions, looking forward to not only guiding the dataset selection, but also promoting the dataset research.
There has been exciting recent progress in using radar as a sensor for robot navigation due to its increased robustness to varying environmental conditions. However, within these different radar perception systems, ground penetrating radar (GPR) rema
ins under-explored. By measuring structures beneath the ground, GPR can provide stable features that are less variant to ambient weather, scene, and lighting changes, making it a compelling choice for long-term spatio-temporal mapping. In this work, we present the CMU-GPR dataset--an open-source ground penetrating radar dataset for research in subsurface-aided perception for robot navigation. In total, the dataset contains 15 distinct trajectory sequences in 3 GPS-denied, indoor environments. Measurements from a GPR, wheel encoder, RGB camera, and inertial measurement unit were collected with ground truth positions from a robotic total station. In addition to the dataset, we also provide utility code to convert raw GPR data into processed images. This paper describes our recording platform, the data format, utility scripts, and proposed methods for using this data.
