This paper quantifies the performance of visual SLAM that leverages multi-scale fiducial markers (i. e., artificial landmarks that can be detected at a wide range of distances) to show its potential for reliable takeoff and landing navigation in rotorcraft.

This paper presents a comparative study of three modes for mobile robot localization based on visual SLAM using fiducial markers (i. e., square-shaped artificial landmarks with a black-and-white grid pattern): SLAM, SLAM with a prior map, and localization with a prior map.
