Bay Area Vision Meeting (more info below)
Perception for Robotics
Caroline Pantofaru and Radu Rusu
March 7, 2011
ABSTRACT
Perception for robotics is growing as a field. What was once a specialized area utilizing expensive sensors and using situational information unavailable to more general computer vision problems, is merging into the mainstream. Cheap sensors such as the Kinect provide 3D data to the masses, video is readily available online, and cell phones and cameras with GPS provide situational awareness. Robotics problems are now more general issues. In this talk, we will discuss a variety of perception projects for indoor personal robots currently underway at Willow Garage, Inc.
excellent talk! Have to explore PCL!

We'll never be able to create anything as complicated as a simple fly, realize this and it'll be a lot easier to see that after 50 years of robotics research our robots are still about half as smart as a dead dog.

Insects do not have complicated senses or lot of processing power in their brain but they have very fast feedback loop that corrects errors "on the fly".
Analysing data off-line is nice for publishing papers, but of no value for real robot.
Without feedback You need too much computation to overcome errors, that are obvious very soon if You use your results for real navigation.
