Description:



In the first part of the tutorial a state estimation approach, which estimates slip and longitudinal speed at each wheel and can be integrated with the existing visual inertial navigation systems, will be introduced. 


The novel wheel-level observer, which uses proprioceptive sensor data, fuses vehicle kinematic states, tire internal states, and the wheel dynamics to estimate the speed at each tire, without any information of the road surface friction or global navigation satellite systems. 


A wheel-vehicle dynamical model, which augments estimates at each tire with the vehicle dynamics, will be presented to design an integrated slip-aware framework for state estimation.
