CUBE-LIO Accepted to ICRA2026, the World's Premier Robotics Conference

Panasonic Advanced Technology Co., Ltd. announced that its research on 'CUBE-LIO', a LiDAR-IMU fusion localization technology, has been accepted to the IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) 2026, the world's premier academic conference in robotics. The research will be presented at ICRA2026, held in Vienna, Austria, from June 1 to 5, 2026. Conventional LiDAR SLAM has faced challenges with error accumulation in feature-poor environments such as tunnels and flat walls. CUBE-LIO enables high-precision localization even in these environments by optimizing LiDAR intensity gradient information. This achievement will be integrated into the autonomous navigation package '@mobi' and the 3D spatial scanner '@mapper', contributing to improved accuracy for AMRs in factories and warehouses.
