A Color Transformation for Robust Detection of Color Landmarks in Robotic Contexts

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing ((AINSC,volume 71))

Abstract

We present in this work a robust color transformation which has been applied succesfully to natural scenes allowing the fast and precise segmentation of regions corresponding to color landmarks under uncontrolled lightning. The process is grounded in the the Dichromatic Reflexion Model (DRM) and the properties of the RGB space.
