An improved robust OctoMap based on full visibility model was proposed to meet accuracy needs of 3D map for mobile robot autonomous navigation and it was applied to the RGB-D SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) based on Kinect. First of all, the connectivity was judged by considering the the relative positional relationship between the camera and the target voxel and the map resolution to get the number and the location of adjacent voxels which met connectivity. Secondly, according to the different connectivity, the visibility model of the target voxel was built respectively to establish the full visibility model which was more universal. The proposed model could effectively overcome the limitations of the robust OctoMap visibility model, and improve the accuracy. Next, the simple depth error model was replaced by the Kinect sensor depth error model based on Gaussian mixture model to overcome the effect of the sensor measurement error on the accuracy of map further and reduce the uncertainty of the map. Finally, the Bayesian formula and linear interpolation algorithm were combined to update the occupancy probability of each node in the octree to build the volumetric occupancy map based on a octree. The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively overcome the influence of Kinect sensor depth error on map precision and reduce the uncertainty of the map, and the accuracy of map is improved obviously compared with the robust OctoMap.
