AINS: Affordable Indoor Navigation Solution via Line Color Identification Using Mono-Camera for Autonomous Vehicles

Recently, researchers have been exploring various ways to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of autonomous vehicles by researching new methods, especially for indoor scenarios. Autonomous Vehicles in indoor navigation systems possess many challenges especially the limited accuracy of GPS in indoor scenarios. Several, robust methods have been explored for autonomous vehicles in indoor scenarios to solve this problem, but the ineffectiveness of the proposed methods is the high deployment cost.To address the above-mentioned problems we have presented A low-cost indoor navigation method for autonomous vehicles called Affordable Indoor Navigation Solution (AINS) which is based on based on Monocular Camera. Our proposed solution is mainly based on a mono camera without relying on various huge or power-inefficient sensors to find the path, such as range finders and other navigation sensors. Our proposed method shows that we can deploy autonomous vehicles’ indoor navigation systems while taking into consideration the cost. We can observe that the results shown by our solution are better than existing solutions and we can reduce the estimated error and time consumption.
