چکیده

In this paper, we propose a robust method to register a panoramic range data obtained by a panoramic laser range finder and an omni-directional image acquired by a stereo omni-directional system (SOS), by matching the horizontal and vertical edge histograms of the two images. The proposed method first estimates the relative horizontal rotation angle by matching the vertical edge histograms. Next, for each horizontal direction, we generate horizontal edge histograms for both SceneModeler and SOS, using the perspective images with a FOV of 90Æ centered at the concerned direction. Then we match the horizontal edge histogram in each direction and use the matching results to estimate the relative pose between the sensors. Experimental results show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.

Image Memory Based Navigation with 3D-2D Edge Matching for Mobile Robot Equipped with Omni-directional Camera

Map information is important for self localization and path planning when mobile robots accomplish autonomous tasks. We use 3D environment model containing color data and structure data of the environment. We propose a method for image memory based navigation of a mobile robot with 3D-2D edge matching by using a 3D environment model. Our proposed self localization method is composed of two phas...

Space Variant Feature Extraction for Omni-directional Images

In recent years, the use of omni-directional cameras has become increasingly more popular in vision systems and robotics. To date, most of the research relating to omnidirectional cameras has focussed on the design of the camera or the way in which to project the omni-directional image to a panoramic view rather than on how to process these images after capture. Typically images obtained from o...

Omnidirectional Video Applications

In the past decade there has been a significant increase in the use of omni-directional video — video that captures information in all directions. The bulk of this research has concentrated on the use of omni-directional video for navigation and for obstacle avoidance. This paper reviews omni-directional research at the VAST lab that address other applications; in particular, we review advances...

Improving quality of unwarped omni-images with irregularly-distributed unfilled pixels by a new edge-preserving interpolation technique

A new method called ‘‘edge-preserving 8-directional two-layered weighting interpolation’’ is proposed for interpolating unfilled pixels in a perspective-view or panoramic image resulting from unwarping an omni-image taken by a non-single-view-point hypercatadioptric camera. This method can solve the problem of edge preserving in interpolating the input image which has many irregularly-distribut...

Using BELBIC based optimal controller for omni-directional threewheel robots model identified by LOLIMOT

In this paper, an intelligent controller is applied to control omni-directional robots motion. First, the dynamics of the three wheel robots, as a nonlinear plant with considerable uncertainties, is identified using an efficient algorithm of training, named LoLiMoT. Then, an intelligent controller based on brain emotional learning algorithm is applied to the identified model. This emotional l...
