Augmented UWB-ZUPT-SLAM Utilizing Multisensor Fusion

This article proposes a generalized UltraWideBand (UWB)-Zero-velocity-UPdaTe (ZUPT)-simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm, a SLAM approach, utilizing a combination of foot-mounted localization systems integrating inertial measurement units (IMUs), UWB modules, barometers, and dynamically-deployed beacons incorporating UWB, IMUs, an
