Binocular stereo, vergence stereo, and depth from focus have been extensively studied in isolation in the past for extraction of depth. These passive approaches have there oivn strengths and limitations. All these cues differ in their input image requirements, computational requirements, and the quality and nature of results they provide. None of them by themselves is sufficient to reliably extract depth information from a wide variety of scenes. It is evident an integrated system ivhich employs multiple cues and exploits their strengths would be most critical for developing a robust depth extraction system. Active vision paradigm alloivs us to develop such a system where various depth cues cooperate to derive the 3-D structure of the scene. In this, the integration would be accomplished by active intelligent control of the acquisition processes tightly coupled to the analysis of image data. One of the uniqueness of our integration approach is that while previous approaches have used a single primitive stereo system, typically edgel based, we have chosen a novel multi-primitive hierarchical(MPH) system. In MPH model, stereo analysis is performed in multiple stages, incorporating multiple primitives, utilizing a hierarchical control strategy. The MPH stereo system consists of three integrated subsystems: region based analysis module;linear edge segment based analysis module;and edgel based stereo analysis module. The use of regions and edge segments in addition to the edgel based analysis add a new dimension to the extraction of depth from stereo images. In fact, even in an integrated multiple cue based system, an edgel based binocular stereo approach alone is insufficient to process a variety of scenes. The reliance of different primitives at various levels makes MPH stereo analysis ideal for use in an integrated multiple cue based depth extraction system. © 1993 SPIE. All rights reserved.

A Simulation, Animation, Visualization and Interactive Control (SAVIC) environment has been developed for the design and operation of an integrated robotic manipulator system. This unique system possesses the abilities for (1) multi-sensor simulation, (2) kinematics and locomotion animation, (3) dynamic motion and manipulation animation, (4) transformation between real and virtual modes within the same graphics system, (5) ease in exchanging software modules and hardware devices between real and virtual world operations, and (6) interfacing with a real robotic system. This research is focused on enhancing the overall productivity of an integrated human-robot system. This paper describes a working system and illustrates the concepts by presenting the simulation, animation and control methodologies for a unique mobile robot with articulated tracks, a manipulator, and sensory modules.

Describes the status of ongoing work in developing a sensory-motor robotic system, R2H, with 10 degrees of freedoms for research in active vision. To complement the R2H system, a Graphical Simulation and Animation (GSA) environment has also been developed. The objective of building the GSA system is to create a comprehensive design tool to design and study the behavior of active systems and their interactions with the environment. The GSA system will aid the researchers to develop high performance and reliable software and hardware in a most effective manner. The GSA environment integrates sensing and motor actions and features complete kinematic simulation of the R2H system, sensors and its workspace. With the aid of the GSA environment, depth-from-focus, depth-from-vergence, and depth-from-stereo modules have been implemented and tested.

The basic operational scenario for many application domains is to deploy nonhuman system components in the hazardous workspace and keep the human operator away from the hazardous but real work environment. The operator is an essential element of the integrated system and is provided with various powerful displays (for both visual and nonvisual information) for telepresence and interactive controls for teleoperation. Thus, the operator stationed in the safe and virtual work environment, is able to cooperate with the robotic system in accomplishing an assigned task. The team has been investigating various problems associated with the use of virtual-reality based concepts in robot control and system development for the past several years. Some of the main ideas which underlie the investigations are, multiple sensory based operation, transparency between real and virtual mode operation, integrating sensing and task planning in simulation, and reliance on extensive and systematic experimental evaluation. The systems developed are useful for both off-online and online operation.

This paper describes a reactive obstacle negotiating algorithm for articulated-tracked robots and demonstrates a working system by presenting the simulation, animation, and control methodologies for an articulated-tracked mobile robot with a manipulator and sensory modules. Developing the motion planning strategies for robots with articulated-tracked locomotin is much different from path planning techniques developed for wheeled robots traveling on a planar surface, as the problems are not limited to solving the obstacle avoidance only, but involve finding the obstacle negotiating strategy as well. The authors have been developing tracked mobile-manipulator systems for applications in hazardous environments. A simulation, animation, visualization and interactive control (SAVIC) environment has been developed for the design and operation of a integrated robotic manipulator system.

TRANSFORMATION RELATIONSHIPS FOR 2 COMMONLY UTILIZED EULER ANGLE REPRESENTATIONS

引用

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SYSTEMS MAN AND CYBERNETICS 1992年第3期22卷 555-559页

There is no standard representation scheme that is followed by different groups of robot designers to describe the orientation of a rotating rigid body. For a sensor-based robot, the particular rotation representation scheme used by the robot affects not only the specification of the positioning of the arm and end-effector, but also the specification of the placement of the sensors and the method of computing the sensory-to-world transformation. Thus the need for finding the transformation between different rotation representations is obvious for one involved in the development of high-level software systems that need to be transported to different robots utilizing different rotation representation schemes. Among those representation schemes, Euler angle representations are widely used in commercial robots as well as in research laboratory robots. Typically, there are three different Euler angle representation systems, and each system describes a particular orientation of a rigid body in a reference coordinate frame by specifying three angles. Mathematical derivations of the transformation relationships underlying the parameters from two most commonly utilized representation schemes are presented. These relationships are derived in two different ways. One is based upon the solution of the inverse transform for Euler angles and the other is based upon the Napier's rules associated with spherical trigonometry.

CURVATURE CONSISTENCY IMPROVES LOCAL SHADING ANALYSIS

This paper describes how a surface reconstruction algorithm, based on minimizing the variation of surface curvature, can be used to stabilize and correct the results of local shading analysis. What is novel about this approach is that it is viewpoint independent and applicable to any process that can provide estimates of local surface orientation. The assumptions used in formulating the minimization are derived from standard differential geometry. When applied as a second stage of processing after local shading analysis, the algorithm can recover a close approximation of the true surface orientation under realistic assumptions about image noise. Results are presented that show the performance of the algorithm on synthetic and real data. In particular, they demonstrate how this form of reconstruction can compensate for some of the shape distortion incurred in local shading analysis.

PART DECOMPOSITION OF OBJECTS FROM SINGLE VIEW LINE DRAWINGS

CVGIP-IMAGE UNDERSTANDING

CVGIP-IMAGE UNDERSTANDING 1992年第1期55卷 73-83页

作者： BERGEVIN, R LEVINE, MD Computer Vision and Robotics Laboratory McGill Research Centre for Intelligent Machines McGill University Montréal Québec Canada H3A 2A7

We describe an algorithm for segmenting a 3D object into its constituent volumetric parts from a single 2D line drawing. This algorithm is part of the bottom-up line drawing description process of PARVO, a generic object recognition system. In PARVO, an object is recognized as being a member of a class defined by qualitative geometrical properties and topological structure. Similarity between different 3D views of any member of a given class is a result of building coarse part-based structural descriptions from limited information. A preliminary stage to part segmentation of an object consists of extracting viewpoint-invariant and nonaccidental features from the line drawing. The segmentation process itself is described as a hierarchical decomposition of the line drawing on the basis of pairs of high-concavity points in its silhouette. The pairing of these so-called segmentation points rests on (i) an object visibility model describing the generic structures present in any line drawing satisfying our assumptions, and (ii) the feature instances extracted from the specific line drawing analyzed. First, we discuss the properties of the line drawings in the domain of PARVO. From them, geometrical models of important line drawing features may be developed. The latter are used both as cues in the segmentation process and as precursors to the representation from which part structure is understood.

In this paper we nzake an attempt to bring out the rationale that, for complex robotic applications, contact sensors can provide certain vital information quite easily as compared to non-contact sensors. We begin with describing and discussing our approach towards the development of a multi-sen,sory closed-loop active robotic exploration system for workspace characterization. The exploration system involves acquisition, processing, and integration of sensory inputs acquired from uision, poin,t laser range, tactile, and force/torque sensors. The exploration process results in building three-dimensional Half-space models of various polyhedral (convex and concave) objects encountered in the workspace. Subsequent to the process of building object models using active exploration mechanisms, the object models allow extraction of essential geometric information required for performing tasks such as object identification, grasping, and man ipiila t io n. Th e experim en tal resuh showtli at vurious geometrical descriptors that are required for model building, can be extracted quite reliably using the sensor specific exploratory mechanisms. © 1992 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.

Multi-primitive hierarchical (MPH) stereo system

Multi-primitive hierarchical (MPH) stereo system

1992 IEEE computer Society Conference on computer vision and Pattern Recognition, CVPR 1992

A computational framework for an accurate, robust, and efficient stereo approach is developed. Most of the deficiencies prevailing in current computational models of stereo can be attributed to their use of a single, typically edge-element-based, primitive for stereo analysis and to their use of a single-level control strategy. The multi-primitive hierarchical (MPH) framework for stereo analysis presented is directed toward overcoming these deficiencies. In the MPH model, stereo analysis is performed in multiple stages, incorporating multiple primitives and utilizing a hierarchical control strategy. The higher levels of the hierarchical system are based on primitives containing more semantic information, and the results of stereo analysis at higher levels are used for guidance at the lower levels. It is shown that such a stereo system is superior to a single-level, single-primitive system. © 1992 IEEE.
