چکیده
In this thesis, work regarding to autonomous robot soccer software development is presented. The work covers color calibration, object detection and robot localization topics. Novel YUV color space based method for the automation of color calibration is proposed. Detailed description of automatic color calibration technique implementation is provided along with the visual results illustrating performance of the method. Changes implemented to the goal detection module and motivation behind them are described in detail, providing good overview of the logic of the object recognition algorithm. Utilised localisation system is also described and, finally, the localization system enhancement technique is proposed and explained.

Vision-Based humanoid Navigation using Self-Supervised Obstacle Detection
In this article, we present an efficient approach to obstacle detection for humanoid robots based on monocular images and sparse laser data. We particularly consider collision-free navigation with the Nao humanoid, which is the most popular small-size robot nowadays. Our approach first analyzes the scene around the robot by acquiring data from a laser range finder installed in the head. Then, i...
متن کاملA New Approach to Self-Localization for Mobile Robots Using Sensor Data Fusion
This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...

This paper deals with the problem of humanoid robot localization and proposes a new method for position estimation that has been developed for the RoboCup Standard Platform League environment. Firstly, a complete vision system has been implemented in the Nao robot platform that enables the detection of relevant field markers. The detection of field markers provides some estimation of distances ...
متن کاملA Multi-modal Approach for Assistive Humanoid Robots
Mobile assistive robots can enhance elderly people’s perception of safety and prevent loss of confidence at home. Therefore, multi-modal systems that allow robots to operate in complex environments represent an enticing milestone for self-care and independent living applications. We present a humanoid robot that assists a person in daily activities and detects situations of danger such as fall ...
متن کاملConstraint Based Localization on a Humanoid Robot
In this paper we will present an application for constraint based methods to self localize within the RoboCup domain. During a robotic soccer game, robots of a team need to know where they and their team mates are on the field, therefore they need to localize themselves. For self localization, constraint based methods can be an effective alternative to classic Bayesian approaches as Kalman filt...
