This research focuses on enhancing cooperative localization for heterogeneous mobile robots composed of a quadcopter and an unmanned ground vehicle. The study employs sensor fusion techniques, particularly the Extended Kalman Filter, to fuse data from various sensors, including GPSs, IMUs, and cameras. By integrating these sensors and optimizing fusion strategies, the research aims to improve the precision and reliability of cooperative localization in complex and dynamic environments. The primary objective is to develop a practical framework for cooperative localization that addresses the challenges posed by the differences in mobility and sensing capabilities among heterogeneous robots. Sensor fusion is used to compensate for the limitations of individual sensors, providing more accurate and robust localization results. Moreover, a comparative analysis of different sensor combinations and fusion strategies helps to identify the optimal configuration for each robot. This research focuses on the improvement of cooperative localization, path planning, and collaborative tasks for heterogeneous robots. The findings have broad applications in fields such as autonomous transportation, agricultural operation, and disaster response, where the cooperation of diverse robotic platforms is crucial for mission success.
