An omnidirectional vision sensor for fast tracking for mobile robots
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an omnidirectional vision system we have implemented to provide our mobile robot Rullit with a fast tracking capability. Rullit has to recognize elements in a semi-structured environment (the soccer field of Robocup) at a rate close to 20 Hz. We have designed a multi-shaped mirror to optimize the resolution of the image and its coverage. The interpretation system is based on focused, multi-level, and opportunistic procedures.

Effective Mechatronic Models and Methods for Implementation an Autonomous Soccer Robot
Omni directional mobile robots have been popularly employed in several applications especially in soccer player robots considered in Robocup competitions. However, Omni directional navigation system, Omni-vision system and solenoid kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. This situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensi...
متن کاملOmnidirectional Sparse Visual Path Following with Occlusion-Robust Feature Tracking
Omnidirectional vision sensors are very attractive for autonomous robots because they offer a rich source of environment information. The main challenge in using these for mobile robots is managing this wealth of information. A relatively recent approach is the use of fast wide baseline local features, which we developed and use in the novel sparse visual path following method described in this...

متن کاملOmnidirectional Distributed Vision for Multi-Robot Mapping
In this paper, we propose our ideas for realising a Distributed Vision System for building a map of a large environment with a team of mobile robots equipped only with vision sensors. The vision sensors used in this work are catadioptric omnidirectional vision systems. The mirrors of these catadioptric systems have pro les expressly designed for the robot's body and for the robot's task. We rep...
