Abstract :
Recently, various types of robots have been researched and developed for supporting our life. Also, the perceptual system for the robot is researched. Visual perception includes a lot of valuable information and it is useful for all intelligent robot system. In this research, we discuss about 3-D information structuring for intelligent robot vision. There are many visual sensors and we use the range-imaging camera to detect distance and image data. We propose a method for perceive moving target by using Growing Neural Gas. In the experimental results, we show the potency of our method.
