Abstract

The use of computer vision in autonomous robotics has been studied for decades. Recently, applications such as autonomous vision-based vehicle navigation [1], 3-D localization and mapping [6,4,3] and object recognition [5] have gained popularity due to the combination of increased processing power, new algorithms with real-time performance and the advancements in high quality, low-cost digital cameras. These factors enable autonomous robots to perform complex, realtime, tasks using visual sensors.
