Absolute positioning sensors, like Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) or WiFi signal receivers, may seem straightforward solutions for addressing such a task however, they fail to provide adequate accuracy and can only be applied in specific operational conditions. Therefore, localization techniques have been developed to identify the agent’s position and orientation in the three-dimensional (3D) space. Yet, none of the above would be possible if the respective platform’s location within the environment could not be retrieved. Navigation, obstacle avoidance, manipulation are some of the most representative functionalities that an autonomous agent needs to carry out in order to effectively perform real-world activities.
