PT Unknown AU Xavier Perez Sala Cecilio Angulo Sergio Escalera TI Biologically Inspired Turn Control in Robot Navigation BT 14th Congrès Català en Intel·ligencia Artificial PY 2011 BP 187 EP 196 DI 10.3233/978-1-60750-842-7-189 AB An exportable and robust system for turn control using only camera images is proposed for path execution in robot navigation. Robot motion information is extracted in the form of optical flow from SURF robust descriptors of consecutive frames in the image sequence. This information is used to compute the instantaneous rotation angle. Finally, control loop is closed correcting robot displacements when it is requested for a turn command. The proposed system has been successfully tested on the four-legged Sony Aibo robot. ER
