Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new camera system called Horizon View Camera (HVC). The HVC is possible to install in the small size robot because the height of the HVC can be short. The HVC is a system in which the optical axis of a camera is directed at the horizon with a mirror so that obtained image contains objects without including the ground itself. Therefore, by using the HVC system, separating objects from the ground becomes very easy. Moreover, there are many other useful features of the HVC system. In order to improve the processing speed and accuracy, we propose a new idea whereby the detection of objects becomes easier and the results are more accurate. Then the HVC serves many uses as the robot vision.
