Utilization of low cost sensing is feasible in office like environments due to the regular man made structures. In this paper, we presented an algorithm, which exploits floor boundaries as a feature for robot localization. A colour based floor detection technique along with laser-like scan generation algorithm is proposed for feature extraction. Then an AMCL based localizer is used for robot localization. Experimental results in an office like environment shows the feasibility of the monocular vision based localization.
