Abstract :
Progress in providing the Oxford Autonomous Guided Vehicle (AGV) with computer vision capabilities is described. The GEC Turtle vehicle is the basis for a sensor integration project in which vision plays the strategic role of locating pallets in an unstructured environment. In other projects, the aim is visual servocontrol of the vehicle. Early visual processing using a Sun/Datacube architecture is sketched. Model-based recognition of palletised loads is discussed. Finally, work on the development of parallel vision algorithms is reviewed
