  • Abstract
    In this paper we describe a system that enables a mobile robot equipped with a color vision system to track humans in indoor environments. We developed a method for tracking humans when they are within the field of view of the camera, based on motion and color cues. However, the robot also has to keep track of humans which leave the field of view and re-enter later. We developed a dynamic Bayesian network for such a global tracking task. Experimental results on real data confirm the viability of the developed method.
