Abstract: We have developed omnidirectional vision systems by combining digital colour video cameras with conical and hyperbolic mirrors and applied it in mobile robots in indoor environments. A learning based approach is introduced for localising mobile robot mainly based on the vision data without relying on landmarks. In an off-line learning step the system is trained on the compressed input data so as to classify different situations and to associate appropriate behaviours to these situations. At run time the compressed input data are used to determine the correspondence between the actual situation and the situation they were trained for. The matching controller may then directly realise the desired behaviour. The algorithms are straightforward to implement and the computational effort is much lower than with conventional vision systems. Preliminary experimental results validate

Quadrature and the development of orientation selective cortical cells by Hebb rules
TL;DR: A suitable choice of Hebb rule leads to a system that develops symmetric and antisymmetric response fields (quadrature pairs) at the same time as directional selectivity occurs using inhibition between neighboring cells.

Vision-based robot localization without explicit object models
Gregory Dudek,Chi Zhang +1 more
- 22 Apr 1996
TL;DR: This paper addresses the problem of locating a robot in an initially-unfamiliar environment from visual input by using an approach in which the robot learns to convert a set of image measurements into a representation of its pose, which provides a metric estimate of the robot's location within a region covered by the statistical map the authors build.

TL;DR: This study presents a system of absolute localization based on the stereoscopic omnidirectional vision to localize the robot thanks to matching the sensorial primitives with the environment map and analyzes the performance of the system on several robot elementary moves, in different environments.
