Abstract
Apparatus for determining a current pose of a mobile autonomous apparatus is presented. In embodiments, an apparatus may include interface circuitry to receive detection and ranging data outputted by a Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) sensor that nominally sweeps and provides D degrees of detection and ranging data in continuous plurality of quanta, each covering a portion of the D degrees sweep, every time period T. The apparatus may further include pose estimation circuitry coupled to the interface circuitry to determine and provide a current pose of the mobile autonomous apparatus every fractional time period t, independent of when the LIDAR sensor actually completes each sweep. In embodiments, the apparatus may be disposed on the mobile autonomous apparatus.
