Integrated Tracking with Vision and Sound
نویسندگان
چکیده
The research summarised here is working towards automatic control systems for cameras, in support of remote meetings. Progress is reported on several fronts: use of active contours to track heads, stereo sound analysis; applying particle filtering to handle both visual and aural clutter; and the use of exemplars for stabilisation of inter-frame matching.

Robot Motion Vision Pait I: Theory
A direct method called fixation is introduced for solving the general motion vision problem, arbitrary motion relative to an arbitrary environment. This method results in a linear constraint equation which explicitly expresses the rotational velocity in terms of the translational velocity. The combination of this constraint equation with the Brightness-Change Constraint Equation solves the gene...
متن کاملSequential Monte Carlo Fusion of Sound and Vision for Speaker Tracking
Video telephony could be considerably enhanced by provision of a tracking system that allows freedom of movement to the speaker, while maintaining a well-framed image, for transmission over limited bandwidth. Already commercial multi-microphone systems exist which track speaker direction in order to reject background noise. Stereo sound and vision are complementary modalities in that sound is g...
متن کاملConveyor Visual Tracking using Robot Vision
Robot conveyor tracking is a task in which a robot follows and obtains objects on a conveyor belt. Prior to obtaining an object from an automation line, a robot needs information about the object, such as its position, orientation, velocity, size, etc. Compared to ultrasonic sensors and infrared ray sensors, vision sensors can provide more information about the object on the conveyor belts. Gen...
متن کاملIntegrated Primary Controller Design in AC Microgrids Using Optimal Tracking Control Technique
In this paper, an optimal integrated inner controller is designed for the microgrid primary control level. The main task of the primary control level is to maintain stability and proper power sharing in microgrids. Non-optimal controllers have been generally used to design the inner controller in this level in the majority of researches. On the other hand, accurate and complete models of microg...
متن کاملActive Audition for Humanoid
In this paper, we present an active audition system for humanoid robot “SIG the humanoid”. The audition system of the highly intelligent humanoid requires localization of sound sources and identification of meanings of the sound in the auditory scene. The active audition reported in this paper focuses on improved sound source tracking by integrating audition, vision, and motor movements. Given ...
