Featherweight and high-precision closed-loop detection method

One of the key technologies for autonomous driving is localization. Precise localization is inseparable from high-precision maps. Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) is technologies for building maps and locating in unknown environments. One of the mainstream directions of current autonomous driving research is how to carry out efficient closed-loop processing over long periods of time, eliminating accumulated error in the odometer. Improving the accuracy of the map and ensuring the accuracy of localization is crucial for ensuring the safety of autonomous driving. Therefore, this paper proposes a featherweight and high-precision method for multi-sensor fusion of laser and GPS for loop detection. The closed-loop results are optimized together with IMU to improve the mapping accuracy.
