Researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, led by Professor Hesheng Wang, are advancing Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) beyond static environments. Their work focuses on enabling robots to navigate and understand dynamic, semantic, and deformable spaces, crucial for applications like autonomous driving and surgical robotics. The team has developed techniques for multi-modal sensor fusion, dynamic Gaussian SLAM, and modeling deformable objects, aiming to equip robots with long-term memory and reasoning capabilities for more intelligent navigation.
