Abstract | In this paper a laser scanner based approach for simultaneous detection and tracking of people in an indoor environment is presented. The operation of an autonomous truck, for transporting paper reels in a dynamic environment shared with humans, is considered as the application setting for this work. Here, a human leg detection procedure and an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) based tracking method are employed for real-time performance. Several experiments with different data sets collected from an autonomous forklift truck in a paper mill warehouse have been performed in an offline situation. The results show how the system is able to detect and track multiple moving people. ©2014 IEEE. |
