Animal Navigation: Path Integration, Visual Landmarks and Cognitive Maps
Animals typically have several navigational strategies available to them. Interactions between these strategies can reduce navigational errors and may lead to the emergence of new capacities.
متن کاملHow you get there from here: interaction of visual landmarks and path integration in human navigation.
How do people combine their sense of direction with their use of visual landmarks during navigation? Cue-integration theory predicts that such cues will be optimally integrated to reduce variability, whereas cue-competition theory predicts that one cue will dominate the response direction. We tested these theories by measuring both accuracy and variability in a homing task while manipulating in...
متن کاملPath integration in mammals and its interaction with visual landmarks.
During locomotion, mammals update their position with respect to a fixed point of reference, such as their point of departure, by processing inertial cues, proprioceptive feedback and stored motor commands generated during locomotion. This so-called path integration system (dead reckoning) allows the animal to return to its home, or to a familiar feeding place, even when external cues are absen...
متن کاملLearning Visual Landmarks for Mobile Robot Navigation
This paper describes a vision-based landmark learning and recognition system for use in mobile robot navigation tasks. The system uses genetic algorithms (GA) for both learning and recognition processes. It is able to learn new landmarks with very little human intervention. The recognition system can read text inside landmarks, when present. This learning ability has been tested with two very d...
متن کاملTopological Maps for Visual Navigation
We address the problem of visual-based indoors navigation based on a single camera that provides the required visual feedback information. The usual approach relies on a map to relocate the robot with respect to the environment. Once the robot position and orientation are known, a suitable trajectory is deened according to the mission goals and the structure of the environment. However, one cou...
