Fiducial markers can encode rich information about the environment and aid Visual SLAM (VSLAM) approaches in reconstructing maps with practical semantic information. Current marker-based VSLAM approaches mainly utilize markers for improving feature detections in low-feature environments and/or incorporating loop closure constraints, generating only low-level geometric maps of the environment prone...
