Abstract
The goal of this thesis is to create a program, that will be receiving measurements from robot's sensors, provide sensor fusion and estimate position of robot based on this fusion. For solving I used knowledge about probabilistic robotics, robotic operating system, information fusion, filtering especially extended Kalman filter and robot localization. I created an application of extended Kalman filter as a result. Filter listen to messages from robot sensors, providing a sensor fusion and estimating position of the robot in environment. Filter can receive measurements from multiple sources. The estimated states have proven themselves reasonably accurate for successful robot localization in space
