Robotic SLAM!

Matt Follett will be providing a survey of Simultaneous Localization & Mapping. SLAM is a very interesting problem that has many different solutions based on the specific tools available and the exact goal.

We'll cover basic concepts necessary to understand the topic and then delve into a number of papers that take interesting approaches to solving this problem.

This should end up being a pretty fun talk with some interesting statistics, neat examples, and fun papers.

I'll be covering several papers which I'll try to update this description with soon.
