Active sensing and information structuring for intelligent robot vision with range imaging sensor

Recently, various types of robots have been researched and developed for supporting our life. Also, the perceptual system for the robot is researched. Visual perception includes a lot of valuable information and it is useful for all intelligent robot system. In this paper, we discuss intelligent robot vision in order to active sensing and information structuring for human-robot collaboration system. There are many visual sensors and we use the range-imaging camera to detect distance and image data. We propose a method for active sensing and target information structuring by using growing neural Network and Genetic algorithm. In the experimental results, we show the potency of our method.
