  • Abstract
    In this work, a 2D vision-based simultaneous localization and mapping algorithm is developed for an unmanned aerial vehicle flying at a constant altitude. We use visual features of images obtained from an on-board camera to identify different landmarks. Using these landmarks we apply the well-known extended Kalman filter to the SLAM problem and present some simulation results.
