Abstract :
Presents an overview of the Sheffield AIVRU 3D vision system for robotics. The system currently supports model based object recognition and location; its potential for robotics applications is demonstrated by its guidance of a UMI robot arm in a pick and place task. The system is currently being developed to allow robot navigation by utilising visual feedback. The idea is to exploit the temporal coherence that exist in a sequence of images in order to provide quickening strategies
