Kalman Filter? Grid Based Markov? Particle Filter?
. This is a particle
. It represents a possible pose
. x y z heading weight
Prediction Step Update the position of each particle using noisy
velocity and gyroscope readings.
Correction Step 1. Check for an augmented reality tag. 2.
Calculate transformation from camera to tag. 3. Use known coordinates of the tag to calculate the position of the quadcopter.
Correction Step 4. Weight the particles using their similarity to
this calculated position. 5. Perform weighted resampling of the particles. 6. With some probability, replace particles with this calculated position.
Estimate Use a linear combination of the particle values to
create an estimated pose.

Conclusion
Particle filter localization using augmented reality tags performs substantially better
than integrated velocity alone.
AR Tags are highly dependent on lighting.
Its called Hardware for a reason.
Next steps... Full integration with controller. Modeling objects.
Thanks!
