移動ロボットによる蔵書確認のための背表紙テンプレート画像による書籍探索

抄録

This study aims to automate the inspection and transport of books in libraries using mobile robots and cameras because of their ease of implementation. Therefore, this paper describes the development of book recognition technology for mobile robots using cameras. We attempted to perform template matching between the bookshelf image and the spine image using image local features ”SURF” that are robust to change of the Shooting conditions. By classifying the SURF features in the spine image, we extracted the features caused by the shape of the letters. Books could be searched with high accuracy when image local feature matching was possible.
