Abstract

 

Although many algorithms exist to solve the problem of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), most of these implementations assume a static environment.  When dynamic objects, such as people, doors and trash cans are encountered, these algorithms at best filter out the dynamic objects, and at worst include them in the map.  In this talk, I will present a survey of recent work in dynamic object tracking and present our approach, which aims to combine the best features of the various algorithms.
