Abstract. We investigate the influence of the mirror shape on the imaging quality of catadioptric sensors. For axially symmetrical mirrors we calculate the locations of the virtual...
Abstract— Mobile robots rely on their ability of scene recognition to build a topological map of the environment and perform location-related tasks. In this paper, we describe a ...
— This paper presents a self-positioning system for the mobile robot. The proposed positioning system consists of a stereo setup of two ODVs (Omni-Directional Vision) for obtaini...
This paper deals with an omni-directional sensor based on a camera and a mirror generated with a surface of revolution. The requirements the device must fulfill result from its use...
We have assembled a standalone, movable system that can capture long sequences of omnidirectional images (up to 1,500 images at 6.7 Hz and a resolution of 1140 × 1030). The goal ...
