Homing Navigation Based on Path Integration with Optical Flow
نویسنده
چکیده
There have been many homing navigation algorithms for robotic system. In this paper, we suggest a bio-inspired navigation model. It builds path integration based on optical flow. We consider two factors on robot movements, translational movement and rotational movement. For each movement, we found distinguishable optical flows. Based on optical flow, we estimate ego-centric robot movement and integrate the path optimally. We can determine the homing direction and distance. We test this algorithm and evaluate the performance of homing navigation for robotic system.

Visual Homing Is Possible Without Landmarks: A Path Integration Study in Virtual Reality
The literature often suggests that proprioceptive and especially vestibular cues are required for navigation and spatial orientation tasks involving rotations of the observer. To test this notion, we conducted a set of experiments in virtual environments in which only visual cues were provided. Participants had to execute turns, reproduce distances, or perform triangle completion tasks. Most ex...

متن کاملBiologically plausible visual homing methods based on optical flow techniques
Insects are able to return to important places in their environment by storing an image of the surround while at the goal, and later computing a home direction from a matching between this ‘snapshot’ image and the currently perceived image. Very similar ideas are pursued for the visual navigation of mobile robots. A wide range of different solutions for the matching between the two images have ...
متن کاملHow you get there from here: interaction of visual landmarks and path integration in human navigation.
How do people combine their sense of direction with their use of visual landmarks during navigation? Cue-integration theory predicts that such cues will be optimally integrated to reduce variability, whereas cue-competition theory predicts that one cue will dominate the response direction. We tested these theories by measuring both accuracy and variability in a homing task while manipulating in...
متن کاملFrom homing behavior to cognitive mapping: integration of egocentric pose relations and allocentric landmark information in a graph model
This thesis is based on the opinion that the evolution of a spatial memory, which is the basis for more complex navigation capabilites, could be explained by a combination of simple navigation strategies. Complex navigation capabilites are e.g. route planing or the ability of finding shortcuts over unknown areas. It is assumed, that the spatial memory, or the “cognitive map”, is organized as a ...
