Abstract

Image information provided by cameras is strongly affected by environmental influence of an object’s circumjacent and circumference. In order to reduce environmental influence, a system which was integrated distance information provided from a laser range sensor (LRS) and image information provided by a camera was developed, and consisted of an object extraction section and a recognition processing section. In this paper the effectiveness of the system was inspected by performing an object extraction experiment using the combined integrated distance information and image information. From these results, this system could remove a background and a floor surface by using the distance information, and simpler object extraction was enabled.
