A Cost-Effective Person-Following System for Assistive Unmanned Vehicles with Deep Learning at the Edge

Abstract: The vital statistics of the last century highlight a sharp increment of the average age of the world population with a consequent growth of the number of older people. Service robotics applications have the potentiality to provide systems and tools to support the autonomous and self-sufficient older adults in their houses in everyday life, thereby avoiding the task of monitoring them with third parties. In this context, we propose a cost-effective modular solution to detect and follow a person in an indoor, do… Show more

“…Applications that focus on low-cost (45% of PS) choose SBCs to be part of their systems because with such hardwares it is possible to realize applications such as access control and authentication and monitoring systems [Curtin and Matthews 2019, Oliveira and Wehrmeister 2018, Lindner et al 2020, Nikodem et al 2020] while maintaining a feasible cost and easy replication. It is also interesting to note that in applications involving systems that promote user accessibility [Calabrese et al 2020] or that are part of systems that already have a certain high level of cost [Milioto et al 2017, Nikodem et al 2020, Kim et al 2019, Boschi et al 2020] the low cost of the system is a concern for the authors.…”

“…Previously obtained values were compared with other similar works, such as that of [ 65 ], whose architecture uses a Nano Jetson as an embedded system executing a YOLOv3-tiny network. This network is similar to MobileNet-SSD in size and computational cost.…”

“…Most indoor localization focuses on estimating the location of a single target [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ], with only a few addressing multi-target localization. In [ 13 , 14 ], multi-targeting was achieved using UHF RFID and microphone devices, respectively.…”
