Methods for object recognition and classification for tele-controlled service robots

摘要

Abstract The need of personal service robots has been increased in the past several years. The tasks assigned to the robots vary in complexity and degree of freedom. In order to assist senior citizens and people with disabilities with their day to day tasks, a greater degree of freedom is required – more autonomy, ability to fulfil more complex tasks and easier for use human-machine interface. In this paper we show some of the methods that can be implemented in personal service robots for object recognition and classification in order to achieve greater autonomy, hence greater degree of freedom.
