1P1-L11 Search and Conveyance Technique for Small Object by Partner Dog Robot

Abstract

This paper describes search and conveyance technique by a partner dog robot that uses a marker. We install a marker to a small object, and we assume it a target. The marker is used as the handle which a robot catches. The partner dog robot detects these markers by image processing and transports it. In this technique transportation becomes possible regardless of the shape of small articles. We confirmed that the detection of the target by the technique was possible by an experiment.
