Abstract
Proposes a new omnidirectional image sensor, COPIS (conic projection image sensor), for guiding navigation of a mobile robot. It features passive sensing of omnidirectional images of the environment in real-time (at the frame rate of a TV camera) using a conic mirror. COPIS is a suitable sensor for visual navigation in real world environment with moving objects. The paper describes a method for estimating the location and the motion of the robot by detecting the azimuth of each object in the omnidirectional image. It also presents a method to avoid collision against unknown obstacles and estimates their locations by detecting their azimuth changes while the robot is moving in the environment.<>
