Abstract
This document describes techniques and systems for vehicle localization based on pose corrections from remote cameras in parking garages and other GNSS denial environments. A system can include a processor and computer-readable storage media comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to determine an estimated pose of the host vehicle within a GNSS denial environment after the host vehicle has been parked at a drop-off area. The system can also receive a corrected pose of the host vehicle from one or more remote cameras in the GNSS denial environment. The instructions further cause the processor to use the corrected pose to determine an updated pose for the host vehicle. In this way, the system can provide highly accurate vehicle localization in GNSS denial environments in a cost-effective manner to support automated valet parking and other autonomous driving functionalities.
