This paper presents a fuzzy-motion-control based tracking algorithm of mobile robots, which uses the geometrical information derived from the active stereo-vision system mounted on the mobile robot. The active stereo-vision system consists of two color cameras that rotates in two angular dimensions. With the stereo-vision system, the center position and depth information of the target object can be calculated. The proposed fuzzy motion controller is used to calculate the tracking velocity and angular position of the mobile robot, which makes the mobile robot keep following the object with a constant distance and orientation.

In this paper, a precise trajectory tracking method for mobile robot using a vision system is presented. In solving the problem of precise trajectory tracking, a hierarchical control structure is used which is composed of the path planer, vision system, and dynamic controller. When designing the dynamic controller, non-ideal conditions such as parameter variation, frictional force, and external disturbance are considered. The proposed controller can learn bounded control input for repetitive or periodic dynamics compensation which provides robust and adaptive learning capability. Moreover, the usage of vision system makes mobile robot compensate the cumulative location error which exists when relative sensor like encoder is used to locate the position of mobile robot. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is shown through computer simulation.

This paper suggest target detection algorithm for mobile robot control using color and shape recognition. In many cases, ultrasonic sensor(USS) is used in mobile robot system to measure the distance between obstacles. But with only USS, it may have many restrictions. So we attached CCD camera to mobile robot to overcome its restrictions. If visual information is given to robot system then robot system will be able to accomplish more complex mission successfully. With acquired vision data, robot looks for target by color and recognize its shape.

This paper describes power potential field method for the collision-free path planning of stereo-vision based mobile robot. Area based stereo matching is performed for obstacle detection in uncertain environment. The repulsive potential is constructed by distributing source points discretely and evenly on the boundaries of obstacles and superposing the power potential which is defined so that the source potential will have more influence on the robot than the sink potential when the robot is near to source point. The mobile robot approaches the goal point by moving the robot directly in negative gradient direction of the main potential. We have investigated the possibility of power potential method for the collision-free path planning of mobile robot through various experiments.

Line tracking is a well defined method of mobile robot navigation. It is simple in concept, technically easy to implement, and already employed in many industrial sites. Among several different line tracking methods, magnetic sensing is widely used in practice. In comparison, vision-based tracking is less popular due mainly to its sensitivity to surrounding conditions such as brightness and floor characteristics although vision is the most powerful robotic sensing capability. In this paper, a vision-based robust path line detection technique is proposed for the navigation of a mobile robot assuming uncontrollable surrounding conditions. The technique proposed has four processing steps; color space transformation, pixel-level line sensing, block-level line sensing, and robot navigation control. This technique effectively uses hue and saturation color values in the line sensing so to be insensitive to the brightness variation. Line finding in block-level makes not only the technique immune from the error of line pixel detection but also the robot control easy. The proposed technique was tested with a real mobile robot and proved its effectiveness.

본 논문에서는 미지의 환경에서 동작하는 비전 시스템을 갖는 이동로봇의 경로 계획과 장애물 회피를 위한 새로운 알고리즘을 제안하고자 한다. 목표점에 도달하기 위한 경로계획과 장애물회피를 위해 거리 변화율 기법을 적용하였으며, 소벨연산자를 이용하여 장애물의 윤곽을 추출하였다. 이동로봇의 자율성을 향상시키기 위해 경로 설정과 장애물 회피에 퍼지 규직을 사용하였다. 본 논문에서 제안된 알고리즘을 컴퓨터시뮬레이션을 통해 기존의 벡터장 기법을 이용한것보다 우수하다는것을 알수 있었다. 또한 실효성을 실제로 알아보기 위해 소형 이동로봇을 제작하였으며, 제안된 알고리즘을 탑재하여 실험한 결과 복잡한 주변환경하에서도 좋은 성능을 발휘함을 확인할수 있었다.

Autonomous mobile robot provide many functions such as sensing, processing, and driving. For more intelligent jobs, more intelligent functions are to be added and the existing functions may be updated. To execute a job autonomous mobile robot has a information of surrounding environment. So, robot uses sonar sensor, vision sensor and so on. Obtained sensor information is used map generation. This paper is focused on map generation using stereo vision system.

In this paper, authors use a stereo vision system based on the visual model of human and establish inexpensive method that recognizes moving distance using characteristic points around the robot. With the stereovision. the changes of the coordinate values of the characteristic points that are fixed around the robot are measured. Self-displacement and self-localization recognition system is proposed from coordination reconstruction with those changes. To evaluate the proposed system, several characteristic points that is made with a LED around the robot and two cheap USB PC cameras are used. The mobile robot measures the coordinate value of each characteristic point at its initial position. After moving, the robot measures the coordinate values of the characteristic points those are set at the initial position. The mobile robot compares the changes of these several coordinate values and converts transformation matrix from these coordinate changes. As a matrix of the amount and the direction of moving displacement of the mobile robot, the obtained transformation matrix represents self-displacement and self-localization by the environment.
