Abstract :
The Texas active vision testbed (TAVT) represents the most recent stage of an ongoing design process that weighed a large number of alternatives, for both hardware and software to create a flexible and precise tool for active vision research. In this paper, we describe this platform and our ongoing research employing this tool. The platform is used in the development of depth recovery algorithms to extend conventional active vision techniques, such as variable baseline stereo and active focus control, as well as support research in the active control of a vergent stereo geometry
