Abstract
Visual attention of a robot has been realized by determining a fixation point in an image and focusing on the small area around the point. On the other hand, we are proposing an alternative visual attention method in which a robot does not determine a point of gaze in advance. In the method, two cameras are controlled in order to minimize an evaluation function based on binocular disparity of the cameras. In this paper, the proposed method was applied to a robot with two cameras and it was confirmed that the method could simply realized robot's visual attention.
