Funded Activity Summary

Advanced three-dimensional Computer Vision Algorithms for 'Find and Grasp' Future Robots. This project addresses crucial limitations of existing vision systems for the robot grasping of irregular objects in messy living environments. This project aims to undertake fundamental research into novel three-dimensional vision algorithms, exploiting multiple modalities (two-dimensional+three-dimensional+video) for scene labelling, object classification, scene segmentation and grasp synthesis to enable future robots to operate in unstructured environments with highly occluded and cluttered objects. It is expected to significantly advance research and to have broad applications, including home robotics to improve the quality of life of elders and people with special needs. These algorithms may also be used in security (explosive manipulation) and agriculture (field crop harvesting).
