  • Abstract
    Develops theoretical and practical techniques to recover the pose of planar surfaces with minimal sensor readings and motion. A proof is given that two sonar readings suffice to precisely locate a single planar surface that returns the sonar´s signal. An implementation is described that takes into account the physical restrictions on actual Polaroid sensors and experiments are described based on actual Polaroid sensor data
