An indoor autonomous navigation system without GPS has been developed, based on the platform of quad-copter, which may fulfill the task of searching, identifying and entering the target room in a building with multi-rooms corridor. A pose sensor was utilized to stabilize the aircraft. The SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) and plan route in unknown environment have been created by a 2D lidar. A calibrated monocular camera has been used to recognize different marks to make sure the vehicle to enter the target room. The test result showed that the indoor autonomous navigation technology based on lidar for quad-copter aerial robot is feasible and successful.

In this paper, sliding mode control is combined with the classical simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) method. This combination can overcome the problem of bounded uncertainties in SLAM. With the help of genetic algorithm, our novel path planning method shows many advantages compared with other popular methods.

The important characteristic that could assist in autonomous navigation is the ability of a mobile robot to concurrently construct a map for an unknown environment and localize itself within the same environment. This computational problem is known as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). In literature, researchers have studied this approach extensively and have proposed a lot of improvement towards it. More so, we are experiencing a steady transition of this technology to industries. However, there are still setbacks limiting the full acceptance of this technology even though the research had been conducted over the last 30 years. Thus, to determine the problems facing SLAM, this paper conducted a review on various foundation and recent SLAM algorithms. Challenges and open issues alongside the research direction for this area were discussed. However, towards addressing the problem discussed, a novel SLAM technique will be proposed.
