This paper presents a stereoscopic vision system for the mini-robot Khepera. The vision system performs objects detection by using the stereo disparity and stereo correspondence. The stereoscopic vision system enhances robot’s visual perception ability by grabbing stereo images and analysis 3D objects, while the robot doesn’t need to move. The simple principle of our stereo vision is the less d...

Viewpoint calibration is a method to manipulate hand-eye for generating calibration parameters for active viewpoint control and object grasping. In robot vision applications, accurate vision sensor calibration and robust vision-based robot motion control are essential for developing an intelligent and autonomous robotic system. This paper presents a new approach to hand-eye robotic calibration ...

This paper describes a vision-based navigation method in an indoor environment for an autonomous mobile robot which can avoid obstacles. In this method, the self-localization of the robot is done with a model-based vision system, and a non-stop navigation is realized by a retroactive position correction system. Stationary obstacles are avoided with single-camera vision and moving obstacles are ...
