چکیده

After removing the walls around the field, vision-based localization has become an even more interesting approach for robotic soccer. The paper discusses how removal of the wall affects the localization task in RoboCup, both for vision-based and non-visual approaches, and argues that vision-based Monte Carlo localization based on landmark features seems to cope well with the changed field setup. An innovative approach for landmark feature detection for vision-based Monte Carlo Localization is presented. Experimental results indicate that the approach is robust and reliable.

Vision-based fast and reactive monte-carlo localization

This paper presents a fast approach for vision-based self-localization in RoboCup. The vision system extracts the features required for localization without processing the whole image and is a first step towards independence of lighting conditions. In the field of self-localization, some new ideas are added to the well-known MonteCarlo localization approach that increase both stability and reac...

Self-localization of Indoor Mobile Robots Based on Artificial Landmarks and Binocular Stereo Vision

For the self-localization problem of the indoor mobile robots, a self-localization method of indoor mobile robots based on artificial landmarks and binocular stereo vision was proposed in this paper. First, a color scalable artificial landmark model is designed to give position information of the environment. Second, using the color segmentation, invariance of cross-ratio and self-adaptive wind...
