Up to date, application areas of mobile robots have been expanded. In addition, Many types of LRF(Laser Range Finder) systems have been developed to acquire three dimensional information about unknown environments. However in real world, because of various noises (sunlight, fluorescent light), it is difficult to separate reflected laser light from these noise. To overcome the previous restriction, we have developed a new type vision system which enables a mobile robot to measure the distance to a object located 1-5 (m) ahead with an error than 2%. The separation and detection algorithm used in this system consists of pulse phase difference method and multi-stripe structured light. The effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed vision system are demonstrated by 3-D maps of detected objects and computation time analysis.

In this paper we propose new algorithms of path planning and obstacle avoidance for an autonomous mobile robot with vision system. Distance variation is included in path planning to approach the target point and avoid obstacles well. The fuzzy rules are also applied to both trajectory planning and obstacle avoidance to improve the autonomy of mobile robot. It is shown by computer simulation that the proposed algorithm is working well.

In this paper, a practical technique for correction of a distorted image for vision-based localization of ubiquitous mobile robot. The localization of mobile robot is essential and is realized by using camera vision system. In order to wide the view angle of camera, the vision system includes a fish-eye lens, which distorts the image. Because a mobile robot moves rapidly, the image processing should he fast to recognize the localization. Thus, we propose the practical correction technique for a distorted image, verify the Performance by experimental test.

In this paper, we studied for the real-time azimuthal measurement of HMD (Head Mounted Display) to control the tele-operated vision system on the mobile robot. In the preexistence tele-operated vision system, a joystick was used to control the pan-tilt unit of the remote camera system. To give the sense of presence to the tele-operator, we used a HMD to display the remote scene, measured the rotation angle of the HMD on a real time basis, and transmitted the measured rotation angles to the mobile robot controller to synchronize the pan-tilt angles of remote camera with the HMD. In this paper, we suggest an algorithm for the real-time estimation of the HMD rotation angles using feature points extraction from pc-camera image. The simple experiment is conducted to demonstrate the feasibility.

Autonomous navigation of mobile robot requires a ranging system for measurement of distance to environmental objects. It is obvious that the wider and the faster distance measurement gives a mobile robot more freedom in trajectory planning and control. The active omni-directional ranging system proposed in this paper is capable of obtaining the distance for all 3600 directions in real-time because of the omni-directional mirror and the structured light. Distance computation including the sensitivity analysis and the experiments on the omni-directional ranging are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed system.

General stereo vision system shows things in 3D, using two visions of left and right side. When the viewpoints of left/right sides are not in accord with each other, it gives fatigue to human eyes and prevents them from having the 3-D feeling. Also, it would be difficult to track mobile objects that are not in the middle of a screen. Therefore, the object tracking function of stereo vision system is to control tracking objects to always be in the middle of a screen while controlling convergence angles of mobile objects in the input image of the left/right cameras. In this paper, object-tracker in stereo vision system is presented which would track mobile objects by using block matching algorithm of preprocessing and JTC.

This paper presents the use of Point Number Algorithm (PNA) for real-time image processing for position identification of mobile robot. PNA can get how many points in the image gotten from the robot vision and can calculate the distance between the robot and the wall by the number of the points. The algorithm can be applied to a robot vision system enable to identify where it is in the workspace. In the workspace, the walls are made up by white background with many black points on them evenly. The angle of the vision is set invariable. So the more black points in the vision, the longer the distance is from the robot to the wall. But when the robot does not face the wall directly, the number of the black points is different. When the robot faces the wall, the least number of the black points can be gotten. The simulation results are presented at the end of this paper.

In this paper, we present a mobile robot localization solution by using a Ubiquitous Vision System (UVS). The collective information gathered by multiple cameras that are strategically placed has many advantages. For example, aggregation of information from multiple viewpoints reduces the uncertainty about the robots' positions. We construct UVS as a multi-agent system by regarding each vision sensor as one vision agent (VA). Each VA performs target segmentation by color and motion information as well as visual tracking for multiple objects. Our modified identified contractnet (ICN) protocol is used for communication between VAs to coordinate multitask. This protocol raises scalability and modularity of thesystem because of independent number of VAs and needless calibration. Furthermore, the handover between VAs by using ICN is seamless. Experimental results show the robustness of the solution with respect to a widespread area. The performance in indoor environments shows the feasibility of the proposed solution in real-time.

In this paper, new exploration mobile robot is presented. This mobile robot, called Robhaz-6W, is able to overcome hazardous terrains, recognize three dimensional terrain information and generate a path toward the destination by itself. We develop the passive four bar linkage mechanism adoptable to such terrain without any active control and the real time stereo vision system for obstacle avoidance, a remote control and a path planning method. And the geometrical information is transmitted to the operator in the remote site via wireless LAN equipment. And finally, experimental results for the passive mechanism, the real time stereo vision system, the path planning are reported, which show the versatility of the proposed mobile robot system to carry out some tasks.
