Abstract: Vision systems for autonomous machines and methods of using same during machine localization are provided. Exemplary systems and methods may reduce computing resources needed to perform vision-based localization by selecting the most appropriate camera from two or more cameras, and optionally selecting only a portion of the selected camera's field of view, from which to perform vision-based location correction. Other embodiments may provide camera lens coverings that maintain optical clarity while operating within debris-filled environments.

Abstract: Autonomous machine navigation techniques may generate a three-dimensional point cloud that represents at least a work region based on feature data and matching data. Pose data associated with points of the three-dimensional point cloud may be generated that represents poses of an autonomous machine. A boundary may be determined using the pose data for subsequent navigation of the autonomous machine in the work region. Non-vision-based sensor data may be used to determine a pose. The pose may be updated based on the vision-based pose data. The autonomous machine may be navigated within the boundary of the work region based on the updated pose. The three-dimensional point cloud may be generated based on data captured during a touring phase. Boundaries may be generated based on data captured during a mapping phase.
