Pasqualetto Cassinis, L. (author), Fonod, R. (author), Gill, E.K.A. (author), Ahrns, Ingo (author), Gil Fernandez, Jesus (author)This paper introduces a novel framework which combines a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for feature detection with a Covariant Efficient Procrustes Perspective-n-Points (CEPPnP) solver and an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to enable robust monocular pose estimation for close-proximity operations around an uncooperative spacecraft. The relative...conference paper 2020

Pasqualetto Cassinis, L. (author), Fonod, R. (author), Gill, E.K.A. (author), Ahrns, Ingo (author), Gil Fernandez, Jesus (author)This paper reports on a comparative assessment of Image Processing (IP) tech- niques for the relative pose estimation of uncooperative spacecraft with a monocular camera. Currently, keypoints-based algorithms suffer from partial occlusion of the target, as well as from the different illumination conditions be- tween the required offline database...conference paper 2019
