“…A neuroscience-inspired model of stereoptic and perspective orientation estimators, merged according to different criteria, is implemented on a robotic setup and tested in different conditions. In a similar manner, [97] presents a version of the camera-space manipulation method (CSM). The set of nonlinear view parameters of the classic CSM is replaced with a linear model.…”

This paper introduces a taxonomy of vision systems for ground mobile robots. In the last five years, a significant number of relevant papers have contributed to this subject. Firstly, a thorough review of the papers is proposed to discuss and classify both past and the most current approaches in the field. As a result, a global picture of the state of the art of the last five years is obtained. Moreover, the study of the articles is used to put forward a comprehensive taxonomy based on the most up-to-date research in ground mobile robotics. In this sense, the paper aims at being especially helpful to both budding and experienced researchers in the areas of vision systems and mobile ground robots. The taxonomy described is devised from a novel perspective, namely in order to respond to the main questions posed when designing robotic vision systems: why?, what for?, what with?, how?, and where? The answers are derived from the most relevant techniques described in the recent literature, leading in a natural way to a series of classifications that are discussed and contextualized. The article offers a global picture of the state of the art in the area and discovers some promising research lines.

“…To solve this problem, this works substitutes the USB camera by another type of camera equipped with visual or thermal sensors. The literature presents different types of cameras: linear camera, color camera, stereo vision and infrared camera [14]- [18]. Currently, linear cameras are the cheapest technology on the market yet they perform very poorly in detecting humans [14].…”

“…The literature presents different types of cameras: linear camera, color camera, stereo vision and infrared camera [14]- [18]. Currently, linear cameras are the cheapest technology on the market yet they perform very poorly in detecting humans [14]. Color cameras and stereo vision are efficient in detecting a human presence and can be used for outdoor applications, but their high costs make them a bad candidate for this work.…”

“…IR camera is a robust and efficient solution to make the discrimination between human and non-human presence. This type of cameras is also efficient during nighttime as the camera provides a picture of the environment heat and detects in the image, the human body target with warm temperature [14]. Table I shows one advantage and one limitation of each of the USB camera and the IR camera.…”

This paper presents the framework of an RFIDbased rescue robot for missing people in forest environment. The three main design considerations include the reliability, the cost, and the environmental sustainability. For that, the paper analyzes different outdoor location technologies that can be used for this task, namely GPS, WiMAX and RFID. Former research in mobile robots based on GPS and WiMAX has resulted in high costs systems while RFID offers a lower cost alternative. The aim of this work is to provide an already existing mobile robot with RFID technology. Moreover, to overcome the inability of current rescue robots to detect human presence, the addition of an Infrared camera with thermal sensors is discussed. Finally, in order to optimize the energy management and to increase the autonomy of the rescue robot, the paper presents a power supply solution using solar energy.
