Vision Sensor and Ultrasonic Sensor Fusion Using Neural Network

This paper proposes a new method of sensor fusion of an ultrasonic sensor and a vision sensor at the sensor level. In general vision system, the vision system finds edges of objects. And in general ultrasonic system, the ultrasonic system finds absolute distance between robot and object. So, the method integrates data of two different types. The system makes perfect output for robot control in the end. But this paper does not propose only integrating a different kind of data but also fusion information which receives from different kind of sensors. This method has advantages which can simply embody algorithm and can control robot on real time.
