High precision robot positioning with laser scan matching - long-term experiment

The video shows a KUKA omniRob performing a long-term evaluation of our laser range finder-based fine positioning system. The robot repeatedly travels between three goal locations at which reference scans have been pre-taught. Upon arrival at the goal location the robot corrects its position comparing the current and pre-taught readings of the laser range finders, yielding an average positioning error of less than 0.01 m and 1 deg.
