First Claim
Patent Images
1. A processor-implemented method for visual simultaneous localization and mapping, the method comprising:
- initializing a three-dimensional (3D) target from a first reference image and prior to processing a subsequent image;
processing one or more subsequent images;
tracking the 3D target in six degrees of freedom; and
refining the 3D target based on the processing of the one or more subsequent images.

Abstract
Apparatuses and methods for fast visual simultaneous localization and mapping are described. In one embodiment, a three-dimensional (3D) target is initialized immediately from a first reference image and prior to processing a subsequent image. In one embodiment, one or more subsequent reference images are processed, and the 3D target is tracked in six degrees of freedom. In one embodiment, the 3D target is refined based on the processed the one or more subsequent images.

21. A data processing device for visual simultaneous localization and mapping comprising:
-
a processor; and a storage device coupled to the processor and configurable for storing instructions, which, when executed by the processor cause the processor to; initialize a three-dimensional (3D) target from a first reference image and prior to processing a subsequent image; process one or more subsequent images; track the 3D target in six degrees of freedom; and refine the 3D target based on the processing of the one or more subsequent images. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
