Notification:

What your robot see and how it affect to navigation?

In our case the robot uses only limited sequence of images from camera for
navigation. The AVM Navigator application just tries to recognize images so
that be able to understand robot location. And if you show in route training
process of some image sequence (just lead your robot in "Marker mode")
then in automatic navigation mode the robot should have possibility to see
the same sequence of images without anyone changes. Otherwise AVM Navigator
will not be able to recognize images and it will cause to fail in
localization and navigation.

Fun with AVM Navigator



It's little demo of object recognition and learning from motion with helping of AVM Navigator.

All object rectangle coordinates are available in RoboRealm pipeline from external variables:
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_X - left-top corner X coordinate of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_Y - left-top corner Y coordinate of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_W - width of recognized object
NV_ARR_OBJ_RECT_H - height of recognized object

So you can use it in your VBScript program.

See here for more details.

It is very ridiculous but my robot can automatically walk from one room to other
and it uses only images from video camera and it works already today

It is enough difficult route that was passed by robot
with help AVM Navigator (route training and passing):

Hi,

I noticed in the youtube video that you jiggle the object (your face or the book) slightly during the learrning phase. Is this an advantage?

Cheers,

Alan

In fact the AVM algorithm is not invariance to rotation and you should show the object for memorizing to AVM search tree under different angles during training for further correct recognition.
