Progress in monocular vision based mobile robot navigation

Abstract

The monocular vision based mobile robots navigation system is studied based on three corresponding areas,machine vision,pattern recognition and multiple targets tracking,which provides a useful algorithm framework for object recognition and tracking except for the navigation.The development history of the existing algorithms and some typical systems are reviewed.Then some promising technologies and algorithm structures are analyzed.Finally,the prospective of the algorithm is discussed and the algorithm framework that maybe useful for related research fields is summarized.
