However, autonomous climbing in such environments presents significant challenges, particularly related to localization and navigation. This paper presents a pioneering navigation framework tailored for BWCRs to navigate through 3D curtain wall environments. The framework comprises three essential stages: Building Information Model (BIM)-based map extraction, 3D climbing path planning (based on our previous work), and path tracking. An algorithm is developed to extract a detailed 3D map from the BIM, including structural elements such as walls, frames, and ArUco markers. This generated map is input into a proposed path planner to compute a viable climbing motion. For path tracking during actual climbing, an ArUco marker-based global localization method is introduced to estimate the pose of the robot, enabling adjustments to the target foothold by comparing desired and actual poses. The conducted experiments validate the feasibility and efficacy of the proposed navigation framework and associated algorithms, aiming to enhance the autonomous climbing capability of BWCRs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0263574724002170","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,3]],"date-time":"2025-01-03T04:56:54Z","timestamp":1735880214000},"page":"743-763","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Navigation of biped wall-climbing robots using BIM and ArUco markers"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"43","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5380-9119","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shichao","family":"Gu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Ziyang","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Weinan","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Yisheng","family":"Guan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Hongmin","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Xuefeng","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"given":"Haifei","family":"Zhu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,1,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0263574724002170_ref14","first-page":"30","article-title":"A BIM and UWB integrated mobile robot navigation system for indoor position tracking applications","volume":"6","author":"Park","year":"2016","journal-title":"J.
