Abstract :
A top-down scheme is proposed for target acquisition, recognition, and localization. This scheme is based on a top-down process of human vision subsumed within the scanpath theory. An important problem is to arrange for camera control when an obstacle intervenes between the camera and the robot being monitored. Two possible procedures to resolve this problem have been evaluated in simulation experiments utilizing computer graphics
