The paper aims at building a computer vision system for automatic image labeling in robotics scenarios. We show that the weak supervision provided by a human demonstrator, through the exploitation of the independent motion, enables a realistic Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) and achieves an automatic image labeling. We start by reviewing the underlying principles of our previous method for egomotion...
We present an original method for independent motion detection in dynamic scenes. The algorithm is designed for robotics real-time applications and it overcomes the short-comings of current approaches for the egomotion estimation in presence of many outliers, occlusions and cluttered background. The method relies on a stereo system which performs the reprojection of a sparse set of features following...
Visual motion is a simple yet powerful cue widely used by biological systems to improve their perception and adaptation to the environment. Examples of tasks that greatly benefit from the ability to detect movement are object segmentation, 3D scene reconstruction and control of attention. In computer vision several algorithms for computing visual motion and optic flow exist. However their application...
We investigated the use of optical flow to predict the time and location of impact of an incoming object. By examining local patterns of optical flow, we make predictions on an object's trajectory with respect to a stationary observer, and its time-to-contact with the observer's (assumed planar) body. Such a cue may serve as inputs to motor responses for reactive threat avoidance, or object interception...
