Abstract

A method of determining a vehicle position and a vehicle velocity, including receiving a camera image sequence based on a camera borne by a vehicle and determining a camera pose based on the camera image sequence. The method includes determining a global position system location based on a global position system receiver borne by the vehicle, determining an inertial movement signal based on an inertial movement unit borne by the vehicle and receiving a wheel encoder signal from a wheel of the vehicle. The method additionally includes determining at least one of the vehicle positions and the vehicle velocity based on at least two of the camera pose, the global position system location, the inertial movement signal and the wheel encoder signal in temporal synchronization.
