Research Interests
Computer vision is the science that deals with computational methods and models for making machines see. Computer vision systems are artifical systems that can extract relevant information from images by means of mathematic algorithms.
In robotics, and in particular humanoid robotics, one crucial prerequisite is the visual perception of the environment in order to support manipulation, imitation, navigation, and human-robot interaction.
My research interests cover the areas of object recognition, pose estimation, and tracking as well as markerless human motion capture, the focus being on accuracy, robustness, and real-time applicability. As sensor system a stereo camera system with approximately human eye distance is used. The developed methods and systems are evaluted on the humanoid robot ARMAR III in the context of various real-world applications.
