3D Object Visual Tracking for the 220kV/330kV High-Voltage Live-Line Insulator Cleaning Robot

The 3D object visual tracking problem is studied for the robot vision system of the 220kV/330kV high-voltage live-line insulator cleaning robot. The SUSAN Edge based Scale Invariant Feature (SESIF) algorithm based 3D objects visual tracking is achieved in three stages: the first frame stage,tracking stage,and recovering stage. An SESIF based objects recognition algorithm is proposed to find initial location at both the first frame stage and recovering stage. An SESIF and Lie group based visual tracking algo...
