Insects have tiny brains but complicated visual systems for motion perception. A handful of insect visual neurons have been computationally modeled and successfully applied for robotics. How different neurons collaborate on motion perception, is an open question to date. In this paper, we propose a novel embedded vision system in autonomous micro-robots, to recognize motion patterns in dynamic robot scenes. Here, the basic motion patterns are categorized into movements of looming (proximity…

A novel way to model DSNs for recognizing movements on four cardinal directions is proposed, based on an architecture of ON and OFF visual pathways underlies a theory of splitting motion signals into parallel channels, encoding brightness increments and decrements separately.

Bio-Inspired Embedded Vision System for Autonomous Micro-Robots: The LGMD Case

The implementation of the selected neuron model by a low-cost ARM processor as part of a composite vision module is presented, which is the first embedded LGMD vision module fits to a micro-robot and performs all image acquisition and processing independently.

Principles of visual motion detection

Reactive direction control for a mobile robot: a locust-like control of escape direction emerges when a bilateral pair of model locust visual neurons are integrated

Khepera robots equipped with normal and panoramic cameras and using ‘randomised winner-take-all’ or ‘steering wheel’ algorithms for LGMD model integration could escape an approaching threat in real time and with a similar distribution of escape directions as real locusts.

LGMD and DSNs neural networks integration for collision predication

An integrated collision predication system is proposed based on neural subsystems inspired from Lobula giant movement detector and directional selective neurons which focus on different part of the visual field separately which can detect hazardous situations that had been difficult for single subsystem only.
