Development of intelligent robot system realizing human skill - realization of ball lifting task using a mobile robot with monocular vision system

Abstract

This paper presents a development of robot system that realizes ball lifting task. The ball lifting is considered as a basic practice in the ball sports such as tennis or soccer. Through this task by the robot, we intend to make clear the process of learning skill to realize the basic task by human. We examine the performance of robot system and demonstrate that the robot enables to perform this task in spite of many difficulties. Our purpose is to develop the intelligent robot system that realizes human skill and we build the basic but significant robot system as a first step
