The received frequency is higher compared o he emied frequency during he approach, i is idenical a he insan of passing by, and i is lower during he recession. Source: Wiipedia I is commonly heard when a vehicle sounding a siren or horn approaches, passes, and recedes from an observer.

18 18/22 Local Relaive Localizaion Visual Odomery Visual Odomery VO is he process of deermining he posiion and orienaion of a robo by analyzing he associaed camera images. This has been used in differen roboic applicaions, such as on he Mars Exploraion Rovers [2]. I is he process of incremenally esimaing he pose of he vehicle by examining he changes ha moion induces on he images of is onboard cameras.

24 24/22 Local Relaive Localizaion Inerial Navigaion Disadvanages Anoher problem wih inerial navigaion is he high equipmen cos. For example, highly accurae gyros, used in airplanes, are inhibiively expensive. Very recenly fiber-opic gyros also called laser gyros, which are said o be very accurae, have fallen dramaically in price and have become a very aracive soluion for mobile robo navigaion.

75 75/22 Summary Odomery is he mos widely used navigaion mehod for mobile robo posiioning. I is well nown ha odomery provides good shor-erm accuracy, is inexpensive, and allows very high sampling raes. However, he fundamenal idea of odomery is he inegraion of incremenal moion informaion over ime, which leads ineviably o he accumulaion of errors. In some cases, odomery is he only navigaion informaion available; for example: when no exernal reference is available, when circumsances preclude he placing or selecion of landmars in he environmen, or when anoher sensor subsysem fails o provide usable daa.
