Abstract

This work proposes a localization system for mobile robots using the Extended Kalman Filter. The robot navigates in an known environment where the lines of the floor are used as natural landmarks and identifiqued by using the Hough transform.The prediction phase of the Kalman Filter is implemented using the odometry model of the robot. The update phase directly uses the parameters of the lines detected by the Hough algorithm to correct the robot’s pose.
