Abstract:Recently, researchers have been exploring various ways to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of autonomous vehicles by researching new methods, especially for indoor scenarios. Autonomous Vehicles in indoor navigation systems possess many challenges especially the limited accuracy of GPS in indoor scenarios. Several, robust methods have been explored for autonomous vehicles in indoor scenarios to solve this problem, but the ineffectiveness of the proposed methods is the high deployment cost. To address the above-mentioned problems we have presented A low-cost indoor navigation method for autonomous vehicles called Affordable Indoor Navigation Solution (AINS) which is based on based on Monocular Camera. Our proposed solution is mainly based on a mono camera without relying on various huge or power-inefficient sensors to find the path, such as range finders and other navigation sensors. Our proposed method shows that we can deploy autonomous vehicles indoor navigation systems while taking into consideration the cost. We can observe that the results shown by our solution are better than existing solutions and we can reduce the estimated error and time consumption.
Abstract:Light plays a vital role in vision either human or machine vision, the perceived color is always based on the lighting conditions of the surroundings. Researchers are working to enhance the color detection techniques for the application of computer vision. They have implemented proposed several methods using different color detection approaches but still, there is a gap that can be filled. To address this issue, a color detection method, which is based on a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), is proposed. Firstly, image segmentation is performed using the edge detection segmentation technique to specify the object and then the segmented object is fed to the Convolutional Neural Network trained to detect the color of an object in different lighting conditions. It is experimentally verified that our method can substantially enhance the robustness of color detection in different lighting conditions, and our method performed better results than existing methods.
