Abstract—A new and fast methodology is discussed as a solution to pinpointing the location of a robot, in a robust way, without environment preparation, even in dynamic scenarios. This solution does not require a high computational power. The methodology is a three-dimensional map based approach, which uses the 3D map of the surrounding environment and data acquired by a tilting Laser Range Finder (LRF), to pinpoint the robot pose. Experimental results about the accuracy of the proposed method are presented in this paper.
