<title>Dynamic vision for precise depth measurement and robot control</title>

Abstract

Dynamic vision is a powerful and effective sensing modality for a broad variety of numerous industrial applications. Two of them will be introduced as examples. One, relates to a novel implementation of motion stereo allowing precise distance measurements by a moving robot in real time with an uncalibrated camera. The other, behavior-based navigation, allows a robot to accomplish a desired navigation task by activation of an appropriate sequence of system- immanent behavior patterns.
