Self-Positioning of a Mobile Robot using a Vision System and Image Overlay with VRML

We describe a method for localizing a mobile robot in the working environment using a vision system and VRML. The robot identifies landmarks in the environment and carries out the self-positioning. The image-processing and neural network pattern matching technique are employed to recognize landmarks placed in a robot working environment. The robot self-positioning using vision system is based on the well-known localization algorithm. After self-positioning, 2D scene is overlaid with VRML scene. This paper describes how to realize the self-positioning and shows the result of overlaying between 2D scene and VRML scene. In addition we describe the advantage expected from overlapping both scenes.
