In this paper, we propose a pose estimation method using local map acquired from 2d laser range finder information. The proposed method uses extended kalman filter. The state equation is a navigation system equation of Nomad Super Scout II. The measurement equation is a map-based measurement equation using a SICK PLS 101-112 sensor. We describe a map consisting of geometric features such as plane, edge and corner. For pose estimation we scan external environments by laser rage finer. And then these data are fed to kalman filter to estimate robot pose and position. The proposed method enables very fast simultaneous map building and pose estimation.

This paper presents a method for building a real-time kernel of autonomous mobile robot control systems. Until now, most of robots have their own operation softwares dedicated only for their use. Sometimes, operation softwares were developed based on MS-DOS or other real -time kernel based on UNIX. However, MS-DOS has many restrictions for use as a robot operation system. Also, mix based real-time kernel has some Limitations for use with mobile robots. So, in this paper, we focus on building a real-time kernel based on Linux. The in this paper, the software modules of Task Management, Memory Management, Intertask Communication, and Synchronization are redesigned. To show the efficiency of the paper, it was applied to run Nomad Super Scout II avoiding obstacles detected by sonar sensor array.
