Gaze Control for a Two-Eyed Robot Head
نویسندگان
چکیده
As a first step towards building a two-eyed active vision system, gaze control is discussed in this paper. Instead of using separate subcontrollers for each of the subfunctions, loosely corresponding to saccade, pursuit, vergence, VOR(vestibulo-ocular reflex), and 0KR( op to-kinetic reflex), that most previous work has done, a potentially parallel gaze controller is proposed whose structure is supervising-planning-adaptation. Based on simulation, the cooperations and interactions in gaze control and the consequence of delays due to image processing and the local controllers are discussed.

The Kinematics and Eye Movements for a Two-Eyed Robot Head
This paper is part of a study of gaze control for a two-eyed robot head. The kinematics of the head and eye movement planning for the subcontrols loosely corresponding to saccade, pursuit, VOR(vestibulo-ocular reflex), OKR(optokinetic reflex), and vergence are presented.
متن کاملGaze controls with interactions and decays
Five control systems loosely corresponding to primate saccadic, vergence, pursuit, vestibule-ocular, and head control operate on a simulated two-eyed robot head maneuvered by a robot arm. The goal is to get some qualitative understanding of the interaction of such reflexes under various assumptions. The simulation is meant to be relevant to U. Rochester's robot. Thus it incorporates kinematics ...
متن کاملA Neural Model of Coordinated Head and Eye Movement Control
Gaze shifts require the coordinated movement of both the eyes and the head in both animals and humanoid robots. To achieve this the brain and the robot control system needs to be able to perform complex non-linear sensory-motor transformations between many degrees of freedom and resolve the redundancy in such a system. In this article we propose a hierarchical neural network model for performin...
متن کاملA neural model for eye-head-arm coordination
The coordinated movement of the eyes, the head and the arm is an important ability in both animals and humanoid robots. To achieve this the brain and the robot control system need to be able to perform complex non-linear sensory-motor transformations in the forward and inverse directions between many degrees of freedom. In this article, we apply an omni-directional basis function neural network...
متن کاملCombining dynamic head pose-gaze mapping with the robot conversational state for attention recognition in human-robot interactions
The ability to recognize the Visual Focus of Attention (VFOA, i.e. what or whom a person is looking at) of people is important for robots or conversational agents interacting with multiple people, since it plays a key role in turn-taking, engagement or intention monitoring. As eye gaze estimation is often impossible to achieve, most systems currently rely on head pose as an approximation, creat...
