Nao Robot Navigation Based on a Single VGA Camera
Original language description
We introduce a localization and mapping approach suitable for a humanoid robot Nao. The proposed method is using data acquired from a single VGA camera, mounted on the head of the robot. It combines two different approaches together to create a detailedmap and accurately locate the robot. Firstly, we present a Simultaneous Localization and Mapping technique (SLAM) based on a sparse 3D point cloud reconstruction. Secondly, we investigate the possibilities of enriching the created map by the detection ofspecial markers. Moreover, we describe the options of using the special markers to directly navigate the robot. The main benefit of our method is in the fact we are using only basic equipment of the robot Nao (no extra devices are needed e.g. external cameras) and we do not need high number of special markers in the scene. We use them to specify the created map. Thus, the method will not fail when no marker is detected. The accuracy of our method is tested using a robotic simulation env
