Specific person recognition and tracking of mobile robot with Kinect 3D sensor

摘要

This paper describes a specific person recognition method and tracking control system with Kinect on-board a mobile robot. An individual recognition algorithm using individual skeletal features is proposed and the experiment results are reported in this paper. The experiment for verifying the proposed method was conducted by recognizing a specific person from two moving persons. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm is effective in the case that there are individual differences between skeletons.
