Abstract

On account of the low accuracy of boundary point cloud information during map construction of LiDAR used in mobile robots, an data processing scheme based on extended Kalman filter (EKF) and improved R-T-S smoothing and averaging is proposed to obtain accurate point cloud information. The proposed scheme can remove some noise points and make the map boundary more smoother and more accurate. The experimental results show that comparying with the original data, the proposed data processing scheme could reduce the position error of point cloud information effectively.
