Vision-based human behavior recognition by a mobile robot

This paper shows an examination about a vision-based moving human posture measurement by a moving mobile robot. The purpose of this study is to show that a moving human motion is measurable by the robot, to realize human behavior recognition for human support systems. To this end, it is performed experiments on a hand position measurement by the robot. The result showed that the actual human hand motion was identifiable with the time-sequential hand positions which the system measured.
