| Research Abstract |
Nowadays, robot applications are being extended to service, house keeping, home-care tasks. There is a necessity to have the safe coexistence of such robots and human-beings. And, human friendly communication is one of important cue for developing such robot system. In this project, we focused on face and gesture recognition from visual information. Actually, we have done following six research projects.
(1) Human Gesture Recognition
Real-time context-based gesture recognition using HMM and automaton
Gesture recognition from image motion based on subspace method and HMM
(2) Posture Estimation
Posture estimation using structure and motion models
(3) Human Tracking and Attention Control
Finding and tracking a person by cooperation between an omnidirectional sensor robot and binocular vision robot
(4) Face Recognition
Integrating person identity and expression information for robust facial expression recognition
Recognizing degree of continuous facial expression change
(5) Human-Robot Cooperation
Autonomous guidance robot system with omnidirectional image sensor
(6) HyperOmni Vision
Development of a tiny omnidirectional image sensor
Development of human friendly robot YYOU
