移動ロボットにおけるカメラを備えたロボットアームの搭載によるロボット周辺の視野拡張

抄録

There have been proposed many mobile robots that can run rough terrain. The small mobile robot proposed by us can be applied to various applications, and it is examined to be used for inspection work in remote places in future. It is important to accurately obtain the information around the mobile robot for the operation and autonomous movement in the remote place. However, it is difficult to accurately catch it by the camera, because the inspection object is in the narrow place and there is a difference in height. This paper describes the configuration and concept of the field of view extensibility by mounting a robot arm equipped with a camera on a mobile robot.
