ROBOT CONTROL BY MICROSOFT KINECT (R), AND APPLICATION THEREOF

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable automatic control of a toy robot without a sensor.;SOLUTION: The controlled robot is observed by Microsoft Kinect (R). On that occasion, a feature point on the robot is determined from a SIFT (scale-invariant feature transform) feature amount of an observation image. Three-dimensional coordinates of the feature point are determined by the Microsoft Kinect (R). That enables the automatic control even over the robot without the sensor.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT
