Toward Visual Intelligence of Service Robot
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper reports some achievements made under the ARC1/94 project funded by the Ministry of Education (Singapore). These include: (1) The development of a theoretical framework for robotic hand-eye coordination with uncalibrated cameras; (2) The development of a deterministic solution for robotic head-eye coordination; (3) The development of a simple and practical solution for ground plane obstacle detection which is an indispensable function that any autonomous mobile robot should have, and (4) The development of a quasi closed form solution to solve feature correspondence in rotational motion stereo.

Visual Tracking using Learning Histogram of Oriented Gradients by SVM on Mobile Robot
The intelligence of a mobile robot is highly dependent on its vision. The main objective of an intelligent mobile robot is in its ability to the online image processing, object detection, and especially visual tracking which is a complex task in stochastic environments. Tracking algorithms suffer from sequence challenges such as illumination variation, occlusion, and background clutter, so an a...
متن کاملNavigation of a Mobile Robot Using Virtual Potential Field and Artificial Neural Network
Mobile robot navigation is one of the basic problems in robotics. In this paper, a new approach is proposed for autonomous mobile robot navigation in an unknown environment. The proposed approach is based on learning virtual parallel paths that propel the mobile robot toward the track using a multi-layer, feed-forward neural network. For training, a human operator navigates the mobile robot in ...
متن کاملToward Socially Intelligent Service Robots
In the Intelligent Robotics Laboratory (IRL) at Vanderbilt University we seek to develop service robots with a high level of social intelligence and interactivity. In order to achieve this goal, we have identified two main issues for research. The first issue is how to achieve a high level of interaction between the human and the robot. This has lead to the formulation of our philosophy of Huma...

This paper presents simulation and experimental results of position-based visual servoing control process of a 6R robot using 2 fixed cameras. This method has the ability to deal with real time changes in the relative position of the target-object with respect to robot. Also, greater accuracy and independency of servo control structure from the target pose coordinates are the additional advanta...
