Vision-based navigation through urban canyons
We address the problem of navigating unmanned vehicles safely through urban canyons in two dimensions using only vision-based techniques. Two commonly used vision-based obstacle avoidance techniques (namely stereo vision and optic flow) are implemented on an aerial and a ground-based robotic platform and evaluated for urban canyon navigation. Optic flow is evaluated for its ability to produce a...
متن کاملVision-based Urban Navigation Proceduresforverballyinstructed Robots
The work presented in this thesis is part of a project in instruction based learning (IBL) for mobile robots were a robot is designed that can be instructed by its users through unconstrained natural language. The robot uses vision guidance to follow route instructions in a miniature town model. The aim of the work presented here was to detenn.ine the functional vocabulary of the robot in d1e f...
متن کاملWall Estimation from Stereo Vision in Urban Street Canyons
Geometric context has been recognised as important high-level knowledge towards the goal of scene understanding. In this work we present two approaches to estimate the local geometric structure of urban street canyons captured from a head-mounted stereo camera. A dense disparity estimation is the only input for both approaches. First, we show how the left and right building facade can be obtain...
متن کاملFuzzy Logic Based-Map Matching Algorithm for Vehicle Navigation System in Urban Canyons
With the rapid progress in the development of wireless technology, Global Positioning System (GPS) based vehicle navigation systems are being widely deployed in automobiles to serve the location-based needs of users and for efficient traffic management. An essential process in vehicle navigation is to map match the position obtained from GPS (or/and other sensors) on a road network map. This pr...
متن کاملVision-based urban navigation procedures for verbally instructed robots
When humans explain a task to be executed by a robot they decompose it into chunks of actions. These form a chain of search-and-act sensory-motor loops that exit when a condition is met. In this paper we investigate the nature of these chunks in an urban visual navigation context, and propose a method for implementing the corresponding robot primitives such as "take the nth turn right/left". Th...
