Abstract
Future missions to the lunar surface are expected to make use of LIDAR sensors for navigation during landing. This is especially true when the lunar landing must be accomplished under lighting conditions that are undesirable for camera based navigation. Moreover, when local maps of the lunar terrain are also poor or unavailable to the lander in real-time, concepts from LIDAR odometry (LO) are highly relevant. This work develops an algorithmic framework for LO suitable for supporting future lunar exploration missions.
