چکیده

In this paper, we propose a method for a mobile robot to avoid obstacles in its environment using an omni-directional camera. The method makes an environment map consisting of 3D edge points obtained from omnidirectional camera images and estimates the locations of planes by analysing these 3D edge points so that the robot can avoid walls as obstacles. The method has the advantage that it can generate a 3D map in environments constructed by textureless planes. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Angle-Based Methods for Mobile Robot Navigation

Popular approaches for mobile robot navigation involve range information and metric maps of the workspace. For many sensors, however, such as cameras and wireless hardware, the angle between two features or beacons is easier to measure. With these sensors’ features in mind, we initially present a control law, which allows a robot with an omni-directional sensor to reach a subset of the plane by...
