laser_line_extraction
A ROS package that extracts line segments from LaserScan messages using a configurable split-and-merge algorithm with weighted line fitting.
What is laser_line_extraction?
Laser Line Extraction is a ROS package that processes laser scanner data to extract line segments from LaserScan messages. It uses a split-and-merge algorithm combined with weighted line fitting to identify geometric structures in environments, such as walls or corridors, from point cloud data. This helps robots understand their surroundings for tasks like mapping and navigation.
Robotics researchers, developers, and students working with ROS who need to extract geometric features from laser scanner data for applications like SLAM, environment modeling, or autonomous navigation.
Developers choose Laser Line Extraction for its robust, configurable algorithm that provides accurate line segments with covariance matrices, seamless ROS integration, and practical visualization tools, making it a trusted solution in academic and research robotics projects.
