SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SCANNING AN ENVIRONMENT AND GENERATING TWO DIMENSIONAL IMAGES OF THE ENVIRONMENT

Abstract:

Systems and methods of generating two-dimensional (2D) images of an environment are provided. The systems includes a measurement device and a processor configured to generate a 2D image of an environment based at least in part on a number of 2D scans, a first translation value, a first translation direction, a second translation value, a second translation direction, a first rotation value, and a second rotation value. Generating the 2D image further includes generating a grid map that includes a plurality of cells, each of the plurality of cells indicating a probability of a cell area being occupied.
