APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EXTRACTING CHARACTERISTIC INFORMATION OF OBJECT AND APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING CHARACTERISTIC MAP USING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technologies of producing a characteristic map for recognizing a position of a mobile robot and of extracting peripheral characteristic information.

SOLUTION: Characteristic information including a reflection function is extracted from the information acquired using a 3D distance sensor emitting light, based on which, a characteristic map is produced. Thus, the characteristic map little sensitive to ambient environmental changes can be produced for a high success ratio at characteristic matching.
