You’ll also analyze regions of interest and calculate properties such as size, … [Read more...] about Image Segmentation, Filtering, and Region Analysis
Robotics: Perception
How can robots perceive the world and their own movements so that they accomplish navigation and manipulation tasks? In this module, we will study how images and videos acquired by cameras mounted on robots are transformed into representations like features and optical flow. Such 2D representations allow us then to extract 3D information about where the camera is and in which … [Read more...] about Robotics: Perception
