This talk will define and motivate the problem of robotic vision, the challenges as well as recent progress at the Australian Centre for Robotic Vision. This includes component technologies such as novel cameras, deep learning for computer vision, transfer learning for manipulation, evaluation methodologies, and also end-to-end systems for applications such as logistics, agriculture, environmental remediation and asset inspection.
Peter Corke is a distinguished professor of robotic vision at Queensland University of Technology and director of the ARC Centre of Excellence for Robotic Vision. His research is concerned with enabling robots to see and the application of robots to mining, agriculture, and environmental monitoring.
