Giulio Sandini – författare

This volume collects the papers accepted for presentation atthe Second European Conference on Computer Vision, held inSanta Margherita Ligure, Italy, May 19-22, 1992. Sixteenlong papers, 41 short papers and 48 posters were selectedfrom 308 submissions.The contributions are structured into 14 sections reflectingthe major research topics in computer vision currentlyinvestigated worldwide. The sections are entitled: features,color, calibration and matching, depth, stereo-motion,tracking, active vision, binocular heads, curved surfacesand objects, reconstruction and shape, recognition, andapplications.

Bionics evolved in the 1960s as a framework to pursue thedevelopment of artificial systems based on the study ofbiological systems. Numerous disciplines and technologies, including artificial intelligence and learningdevices, information processing, systems architecture and control, perception, sensory mechanisms, and bioenergetics, contributed to bionics research. This volume is based on a NATO Advanced Research Workshopwithin the Special Programme on Sensory Systems for RoboticControl, held in Il Ciocco, Italy, in June 1989. A consensusemerged at the workshop, and is reflected in the book, onthe value of learning from nature in order to deriveguidelines for the design of intelligent machines whichoperate in unstructured environments. The papers in the book are grouped into seven chapters: vision and dynamic systems, hands and tactile perception, locomotion, intelligent motor control, design technologies, interfacing robots to nervous systems, and robot societiesand self-organization.
