Summary

Visual-inertial localization that matches image line features to a lightweight 3D prior line map, giving drift-free poses with a proven observability result.

Key innovations

  1. 2D image lines tightly integrated with a 3D prior line map in a factor graph
  2. Robust cross-modality matching and outlier rejection for line association
  3. First proof that global translation is fully observable (only yaw is not)
