- Computational Auditory Scene Analysis
There was intensive research on the integration and segregation factors for sound component self organization. We conducted some examinations on the interactions between different primary cues for sound integration and segregation in human auditory systems by psychological experiments and tried to find out quantitative relations for computational auditory scene analysis.
- Robotic Spatial Sound Localization
We developed a robotic spatial sound localization system using an auditory interface with four microphones arranged on the surface of a spherical robot head. The time difference and intensity difference from a sound source to different microphones are analyzed by measuring the HRTFs around the spherical head in an anechoic chamber.
- Robot Position Identification
We proposed a visual position identification method using colored rectangle signboards for a multimodal mobile robot which is designed to work in a room environment. The rectangle signboards are placed in several known positions. By calculate the vanishing points in the image of the signboard, it is possible to obtain the relative direction between the signboard and the robot by a single image, the distance from the robot to the signboard can also be calculated.
