In this paper we present the design of a decentralized vision-based object search system that can be used for elder care in a smart environment. In our approach, each autonomous search agent maintains separate estimates of the probability density function (PDF) of the object location and makes independent decisions about its search process. Asynchronous cooperative search is achieved by transmitting...
This paper is concerned with constructing a prototype smart home environment which has been built in the research building of Korea Institute of Industrial Technology (KITECH) to demonstrate the practicability of a robot-assisted future home environment. Key functionalities that a home service robot must provide are localization, navigation, object recognition and object handling. A considerable amount...
This paper describes a new object recognition system for service robots in a smart environment full of RFID tags and connected by wireless networks. Object recognition is one of the basic functionalities a service robot should perform and many researchers have attempted to make the service robot recognize objects through vision processing in natural environments. However there is no conventional vision...
One of the functionalities a service robot should have, to work in a smart environment, is object recognition and handling of objects. Many researchers have attempted to make service robots recognize objects in natural environments but no conventional vision systems can recognize target objects in complex scenes. We built a prototype smart environment in our research building at Korea Institute of...
