This monograph is devoted to the theory and development of autonomous navigation of mobile robots using computer vision based sensing mechanism. The conventional robot navigation systems, utilizing traditional sensors like ultrasonic, IR, GPS, laser sensors etc., suffer several drawbacks related to either the physical limitations of the sensor or incur high cost. Vision sensing has emerged as a popular alternative where cameras can be used to reduce the overall cost, maintaining high degree of intelligence, flexibility and robustness. This book includes a detailed description of several new approaches for real life vision based autonomous navigation algorithms and SLAM. It presents the concept of how subgoal based goal-driven navigation can be carried out using vision sensing. The development concept of vision based robots for path/line tracking using fuzzy logic is presented, as well as how a low-cost robot can be indigenously developed in the laboratory with microcontroller based sensor systems. The book describes successful implementation of integration of low-cost, external peripherals, with off-the-shelf procured robots. An important highlight of the book is that it presents a detailed, step-by-step sample demonstration of how vision-based navigation modules can be actually implemented in real life, under 32-bit Windows environment. The book also discusses the concept of implementing vision based SLAM employing a two camera based system.

The ability to acquire and respond appropriately to targets or obstacles. moving or stationary, while underway, is critical for all unmanned mobile robot applications. This is achieved by most animate systems, but has proven difficult for artificial systems. We propose that efficient and extensible solutions to the target acquisition, discrimination, and maintenance problem may be found when the machine sensor-effector control algorithms emulate the mechanisms employed by biological systems. In nature. visual motion provides the basis for these functions. Because visual motion can be due either to target motion or to platform motion, a method of motion segmentation must be found. We present a solution to this problem that emulates natural strategies, and describe its implementation in an autonomous visually controlled mobile robot.

Experimental Robotics XV is the collection of papers presented at the International Symposium on Experimental Robotics, Roppongi, Tokyo, Japan on October 3-6, 2016. 73 scientific papers were selected and presented after peer review. The papers span a broad range of sub-fields in robotics including aerial robots, mobile robots, actuation, grasping, manipulation, planning and control and human-robot interaction, but shared cutting-edge approaches and paradigms to experimental robotics. The readers will find a breadth of new directions of experimental robotics. The International Symposium on Experimental Robotics is a series of bi-annual symposia sponsored by the International Foundation of Robotics Research, whose goal is to provide a forum dedicated to experimental robotics research. Robotics has been widening its scientific scope, deepening its methodologies and expanding its applications. However, the significance of experiments remains and will remain at the center of the discipline. The ISER gatherings are a venue where scientists can gather and talk about robotics based on this central tenet.

This book discusses systematic designs of stable adaptive fuzzy logic controllers employing hybridizations of Lyapunov strategy-based approaches/H∞ theory-based approaches and contemporary stochastic optimization techniques. The text demonstrates how candidate stochastic optimization techniques like Particle swarm optimization (PSO), harmony search (HS) algorithms, covariance matrix adaptation (CMA) etc. can be utilized in conjunction with the Lyapunov theory/H∞ theory to develop such hybrid control strategies. The goal of developing a series of such hybridization processes is to combine the strengths of both Lyapunov theory/H∞ theory-based local search methods and stochastic optimization-based global search methods, so as to attain superior control algorithms that can simultaneously achieve desired asymptotic performance and provide improved transient responses. The book also demonstrates how these intelligent adaptive control algorithms can be effectively utilized in real-life applications such as in temperature control for air heater systems with transportation delay, vision-based navigation of mobile robots, intelligent control of robot manipulators etc.

This book collects a series of research papers in the area of Image Processing and Communications which not only introduce a summary of current technology but also give an outlook of potential feature problems in this area. The key objective of the book is to provide a collection of comprehensive references on some recent theoretical development as well as novel applications in image processing and communications. The book is divided into two parts and presents the proceedings of the 6th International Image Processing and Communications Conference (IP&C 2014) held in Bydgoszcz, 10-12 September 2014. Part I deals with image processing. A comprehensive survey of different methods of image processing, computer vision is also presented. Part II deals with the telecommunications networks and computer networks. Applications in these areas are considered.

Autonomous robots can replace humans to explore hostile areas, such as Mars and other inhospitable regions. A fundamental task for the autonomous robot is navigation. Due to the inherent difficulties in understanding natural objects and changing environments, navigation for unstructured environments, such as natural environments, has largely unsolved problems. However, navigation for ill-structured environments [1], where roads do not disappear completely, increases the understanding of these difficulties. We develop algorithms for robot navigation on ill-structured roads with monocular vision based on two elements: the appearance information and the geometric information. The fundamental problem of the appearance information-based navigation is road presentation. We propose a new type of road description, a vision vector space (V2-Space), which is a set of local collision-free directions in image space. We report how the V2-Space is constructed and how the V2-Space can be used to incorporate vehicle kinematic, dynamic, and time-delay constraints in motion planning. Failures occur due to the limitations of the appearance information-based navigation, such as a lack of geometric information. We expand the research to include consideration of geometric information. We present the vision-based navigation system using the geometric information. To compute depth with monocular vision, we use images obtained from different camera perspectives during robot navigation. For any given image pair, the depth error in regions close to the camera baseline can be excessively large. This degenerated region is named untrusted area, which could lead to collisions. We analyze how the untrusted areas are distributed on the road plane and predict them accordingly before the robot makes its move. We propose an algorithm to assist the robot in avoiding the untrusted area by selecting optimal locations to take frames while navigating. Experiments show that the algorithm can significantly reduce the depth error and hence reduce the risk of collisions. Although this approach is developed for monocular vision, it can be applied to multiple cameras to control the depth error. The concept of an untrusted area can be applied to 3D reconstruction with a two-view approach.
