Abstract
A scene analysis module for service robots is presented which uses SIFT in a stereo setting, a systematic handling of uncertainties and an active perception component. The system is integrated and evaluated on the DESIRE two-arm mobile robot. Complex everyday scenes composed of various items from a 100-object database are analyzed successfully and efficiently.
