Layer 2: Basic Sensory (BS) Modules
Recall that all these modules share a common IF as described in the previous section.
BS_IncrementalEgoMotion
- Description: This module collects data from odometry, and possibly from visual odometry, etc... to provide incremental estimations of the robot pose.
- Interface: Sensory frames of objects CObservationOdometry.
BS_Vision
- Description: This module collects images from the available cameras and:
- Provides the raw images, as CObservationImage or CObservationStereoImages objects.
- Performs real-time feature tracking from stereo images (if available) and provides the tracked landmarks as an object of the class CObservationVisualLandmarks.
BS_RangeSensors
- Description: This module collects data from laser range scanners, and ultrasonic sensors.
Layer 3: Sensory Detector (SD) Modules
SD_PeopleDetector
- Description: This module detects people around the robot using sensor data from range scanners, images, etc....
- Interface: Create a new type of observation? and/or add some specific method to retrieve the detected data.
SD_Local3DMap
- Description: This module maintains a 3D representation of close obstacles around the robot, by fusing data from sonars, laser scanners, and stereo vision.
- Interface: TODO: Specific IF to retrieve:
- A 2D obstacle point map.
- A 2D occupancy grid.
- A 3D point cloud.
