It is challenging for the previous discrete-time and IMU-driven kinematic systems to incorporate multiple asynchronized sensors, which are susceptible to abnormal IMU data. To address these limitations, we introduce a multi-LiDAR multi-IMU state estimator by taking advantage of Gaussian Process (GP) that predicts a non-parametric continuous-time trajectory to capture sensors' spatial-temporal movement with limited control states. Since the kinematic model driven by three types of linear time-invariant stochastic differential equations are independent of external sensor measurements, our proposed approach is capable of handling different sensor configurations and resilient to sensor failures. Moreover, we replace the conventional $\\mathrm{SE}(3)$ state representation with the combination of $\\mathrm{SO}(3)$ and vector space, which enables GP-based LiDAR-inertial system to fulfill the real-time requirement. Extensive experiments on the public datasets demonstrate the versatility and resilience of our proposed multi-LiDAR multi-IMU state estimator. To contribute to the community, we will make our source code publicly available.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.09189v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2402.09189v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"traj-lio-a-resilient-multi-lidar-multi-imu","repo_url":"https://github.com/kevin2431/traj-lo","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[{"method_slug":"gaussian-process","method_name":"Gaussian Process"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
