Validation of Images Produced within the USARSim Simulation Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
A framework for validating the images produced by the USARSim simulation is set up. A standart college dormitory room is modeled in the simulation to produce a controlled virtual environment. Four basic image processing algorithms Canny edge detection, template matching, active contours and optical character recognition are implemented and metrics for evaluating their performance are defined. Tests are run on images from the simulation and from the real world, producing very similar results on three of the four algorithms.

Quantitative assessments of USARSim accuracy
Effective robotic simulation depends on accurate modeling of physics and the environment as well as the robot, itself. This paper describes validation studies examining feature extraction, WaveLan radio performance, and human interaction for the USARSim robotic simulation. All four feature extraction algorithms showed strong correspondences between data collected in simulation and from real rob...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Autonomous Rescue Robot Within the USARSim 3D Virtual Environment
The increasing interest towards rescue robotics and the complexity of typical rescue environments make it necessary to use high fidelity 3D simulators during the application development phase. USARSim is an open source high fidelity simulator for rescue environments, based on a commercial game engine. In this paper, we describe the development of an autonomous rescue robot within the USARSim si...
متن کاملValidation of the dynamics of a humanoid robot in USARSim
This thesis describes a model to replicate the dynamics of a walking robot inside USARSim. USARSim is an existing 3D simulator based on the Unreal Engine, which provides facilities for good quality rendering, physics simulation, networking, a highly versatile scripting language, and a powerful visual editor. To model the dynamics of a walking robot the balance of the robot in relation with the ...
متن کاملA Realistic RoboCup Rescue Simulation Based on Gazebo
Since the first demonstration of the Virtual Robot Competition, USARSim has been used as the simulation interface and environment. The underlying simulation platform, Unreal Engine, has seen three major upgrades (UT2004, UT3 and UDK). These upgrades required a whole new USARSim simulator to be built from scratch. Yet, between those versions the USARSim interface has not been modified, which mad...
متن کاملSimulation of Small Humanoid Robots for Soccer Domain
In this paper, we illustrate the development of a realistic simulation of a humanoid robot model in a virtual environment using USARSim (Urban Search and Rescue Simulator). USARSim provides an accurate 3D simulation of a virtual environment with a detailed rendering and a realistic physics. Moreover, USARSim allows users to observe the virtual environment from different views. One of these is t...
