Autonomous mobile robots need maps for effective, safe navigation, and SLAM in general is still an unsolved problem. Nonetheless, certain combinations of environmental characteristics and sensors admit tractable solutions. In particular, detection and tracking of linear features such as line segments (2D) or planar facets (3D) has been proven robust in many man-made environments. However, these ty...
