Enhanced stereo vision SLAM for outdoor heavy machine rotation sensing

The thesis presents an enhanced stereo vision Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm that permits reliable camera pose estimation in the presence of directional sunlight illumination causing shadows and non-uniform scene lighting. The algorithm has been developed to measure a mining...
