Localization

In French:
Localisation

Definition

Estimation of a robot’s position and orientation within an already known map. A common method, the particle filter, maintains many position hypotheses and discards those that do not match what the sensors see. In Nav2, this is the job of the AMCL module (Adaptive Monte Carlo Localization).
