Abstract

An autonomous environmental visual perception approach for humanoid robots is presented. The proposed framework exploits the available model information and the context acquired during global localization by establishing a vision-model coupling in order to overcome the limitations of purely data-driven approaches in object recognition and surrounding status assertion. The exploitation of the model-vision coupling through the properceptive components is the key element to solve complex visual assertion-queries with proficient performance. An experimental evaluation with the humanoid robot ARMAR-IIIa is presented.
