چکیده

Many objects found in domestic environments are symmetrical. In this paper, a novel method to detect axis of reflectional symmetry in digital images is presented. The proposed approach utilizes image gradients and edge pixel matching to find lines of symmetry. Preliminary results, comparing the symmetry detector with the Generalized Symmetry Transform [Reisfeld et al., 1995] is provided.

Fast Reflectional Symmetry Detection Using Orientation Histograms

simple and fast reflectional symmetry detection algorithm has been developed in this Apaper. The algorithm employs only the original gray scale image and the gradient information of the image, and it is able to detect multiple reflectional symmetry axes of an object in the image. The directions of the symmetry axes are obtained from the gradient orientation histogram of the input gray scale ima...

Automated Tracking and Grasping of a Moving Object with a Robotic Hand-Eye System

Most robotic grasping tasks assume a stationary or fixed object. In this paper, we explore the requirements for tracking and grasping a moving object. The focus of our work is to achieve a high level of interaction between a real-time vision system capable of tracking moving objects in 3-D and a robot arm with gripper that can be used to pick up a moving object. There is an interest in explorin...

An Integration Concept for Vision-Based Object Handling: Shape-Capture, Detection and Tracking

Combining visual shape-capturing and vision-based object manipulation without intermediate manual interaction steps is important for autonomic robotic systems. In this work we introduce the concept of such a vision system closing the chain of shape-capturing, detecting and tracking. Therefore, we combine a laser range sensor for the first two steps and a monocular camera for the tracking step. ...

Grasping of a moving object with a robotic hand-eye system

Most robotic grasping tasks assume a stationary or xed object. In this paper, we explore the requirements for tracking and grasping a moving object. The focus of our work is to achieve a high level of interaction between a real-time vision system capable of tracking moving objects in 3-D and a robot arm equipped with a dexterous hand that can be used pick up a moving object. We are interested i...

Model based techniques for robotic servoing and grasping

A robotic manipulation of objects typically involves object detection/recognition, servoing to the object, alignment and grasping. To perform fine alignment and finally grasping, it is usually necessary to estimate position and orientation (pose) of the object. In this paper we present a model based tracking system used to estimate and continuously update the pose of the object to be manipulate...
