Cooperative Distributed Vision for Mobile Robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multiple robot systems in which every robot is equipped with a vision sensor are more and more frequent. Most of these systems simply distribute the sensors in the environment, but they do not create a real Cooperative Distributed Vision System. Distributed Vision System has been studied in the past, but not enough emphasis has been posed on mobile robots. In this paper we propose an approach to realize a Cooperative Distributed Vision System within a team of heterogeneous mobile robots. We present the two research streams which we are working on, along with theoretical and practical insights.

Cooperative Control of Mobile Robots in Creating a Runway Platform for Quadrotor Landing
Multi-agent systems are systems in which several agents accomplish a mission in a cooperative manner. In this paper, a novel idea for the construction of a movable runway platform based on multi-agent systems is presented. It is assumed that an aerial agent (quadrotor) decides to make an emergency landing due to reasons such as a decrease in energy level or technical failure, while there is no ...

متن کاملCalibration of Widely Distributed Vision Cameras by Mobile Robots with Cooperative Positioning
This paper proposes a calibration method of a distributed vision network in a unified world coordinate system. The vision network system is conceived to support a robot working in our daily human life environment: the system provides with visual observation of the dynamically changing situation surrounding the robot. Vision cameras are rather sparsely distributed to cover a wide area such as a ...
متن کاملEffective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot
Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملAdaptive Panoramic Stereo Vision for Human Tracking and Localization with Cooperative Robots
An adaptive panoramic stereo vision approach for localizing 3D moving objects has been developed in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. This research focuses on cooperative robots involving cameras (residing on different mobile platforms) that can be dynamically composed into a virtual stereo vision system with flexible baseline in order to detect, ...
