Claim 19:
20. An autonomous device for building 3D maps from a surrounding scenery, including:
at least a camera visual sensor; and
at least one selected from a global positioning system and an inertial measurement unit; and a processor coupled to a memory storing instructions for performing actions, including:
capturing visual information of the surrounding scenery and a position where the visual information was captured; and
providing the visual information of the surrounding scenery and a position where the visual information was captured to a server for:
classification of at least one of one or more objects from the visual information of the surrounding scenery into a set of moving objects and a set of non-moving objects;
determination of a sparse 3D mapping of object feature points taken from visual information of the surrounding scenery from the set of non-moving objects; and
building of a 3D map of object feature points from the sparse 3D mapping of object feature points.
