PAVIA: a control system for active vision

摘要

A cooperation between the Microcomputer Laboratory and the Artificial Vision Laboratory of the Informatics and Systemics Department of the University of Pavia led to a design project for a control system for active vision, named PAVIA (Project for an Active VIsion Apparatus). The system allows one to control the movements and the independent positioning of two cameras. A workstation network processes the data received from the cameras and consequentially sends commands to drive four step motors to implement independent 4-axis movements. Furthermore, it is possible to control the shot parameters.
