Abstract
This thesis presents an object-level SLAM system capable of tracking objects in frame and classifying stationary and moving objects. The system combines two open-source algorithms, Mask R-CNN and ORB-SLAM. Mask R-CNN provides instance-level object detection and segmentation, while ORB-SLAM provides keypoint detection, camera tracking, and local mapping.
A typical SLAM system assumes a static environment and treats dynamic objects in the scene as outliers. By using object-level information from Mask R-CNN, we extend the capability to recognize and track dynamic objects. The system uses only monocular images as input, resulting in numerous potentially low-cost applications without the need for calibrating multiple sensors or using a stereo rig. This system gives a mobile agent the capability of understanding and potentially interacting with its dynamic environment.
