1.74 Research Scientist - Multi Robot SLAM
1. Describe the key challenges in designing a SLAM system that supports multiple robots operating in a GPS-denied environment. How would you architect the system to enable shared mapping and distributed localization under communication constraints?
2. How would you incorporate uncertainty into a multi-robot SLAM pipeline, particularly when fusing asynchronous and potentially noisy sensor data from multiple agents?
3. Explain how pose graph optimization is used in SLAM and discuss how you would handle loop closure in a multi-agent scenario. What strategies could you use to ensure robustness against false-positive matches?
4. You're deploying a new SLAM module to a ground robot platform with limited compute (low-SWaP). What steps do you take to profile and optimize the system for real-time operation? What trade-offs might you consider?
5. Describe how you would design and execute a field test to benchmark a new multi-robot SLAM algorithm. What metrics would you collect, and how would you analyze the results to iterate on the design?
