Stretch-ICP: A Continuous-Trajectory Registration and Deskewing Algorithm in Scenarios of Aggressive Motions

Robust robotic autonomy remains challenging in complex environments, where loss of stability on uneven or slippery terrain can induce extreme accelerations and angular velocities. Such motions corrupt sensor measurements and degrade state estimation, motivating the need for improved algorithmic robustness. To investigate this issue, we introduce the Tumbling-Induced Gyroscope Saturation (TIGS) dataset, which consists of recordings from a mechanical lidar and an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) tumbling down a hill. The dataset contains angular speeds up to four times higher than those in similar datasets and is publicly available. We then propose two complementary methods to improve Simultaneous Localization And Mapping (SLAM) robustness and evaluate them on TIGS. First, Saturation-Aware Angular Velocity Estimation (SAAVE) estimates angular velocities when gyroscope measurements become saturated during aggressive motions, reducing angular speed estimation error by 83.4%. Second, Stretch-ICP, a novel registration and deskewing algorithm, enables reconstruction of smoother 6-Degrees Of Freedom (DOF) trajectories under aggressive motions compared to classical Iterative Closest Point (ICP). Stretch-ICP reduces linear and angular velocity errors by 95.2% and 94.8%, respectively, at scan boundaries. Together, these contributions improve the robustness and consistency of lidar-inertial state estimation under aggressive motions.
