Popis: Accurate camera pose estimation in dynamic scenes is an important challenge for visual simultaneous localization and mapping, and it is critical to reduce the effects of moving objects on pose estimation. To tackle this problem, a robust visual odometry approach in dynamic scenes is proposed, which can precisely distinguish between dynamic and static features. The key to the proposed method is combining the scene flow and the static features relative spatial distance invariance principle. Moreover, a new threshold is proposed to distinguish dynamic features.Then the dynamic features are eliminated after matching with the virtual map points. In addition, a new similarity calculation function is proposed to improve the performance of loop-closure detection. Finally, the camera pose is optimized after obtaining a closed loop. Experiments have been conducted on TUM datasets and actual scenes, which shows that the proposed method reduces tracking errors significantly and estimates the camera pose precisely in dynamic scenes.
