  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new incremental map building and self-positioning method for an unmanned conveyance car in a closed area such as a factory storehouse. To navigate the conveyance car, an accurate map is required. The proposed method is based on the detection of a straight line segment measured by a laser rangefinder. The method is validated by experiments.
