Particle Filter Framework for 6D Seam Tracking Under Large External Forces Using 2D Laser Sensors
We provide a framework for 6 DOF pose estimation in seam-tracking applications using particle filtering. The particle filter algorithm developed incorporates measurements from both a 2 DOF laser seam tracker and the robot forward kinematics under an assumed external force. Special attention is paid to modeling of disturbances in the respective measurements, and methods are developed to assist the
