Abstract :
A simple method to generate a 2-D binary grid pattern, which allows for absolute and accurate self-location in a finite planar region, is proposed. The pattern encodes position information in a local way so that reading a small number of its black or white pixels at any place provides sufficient data from which the location can be decoded both efficiently and robustly.
