Paul Benjamin Christopher Funk Pace University, 1 Pace Plaza, New York, New York 10038, 212-346-1012 [email protected] Damian Lyons Fordham University, 340 JMH, 441 E. Fordham Rd., Bronx, NY 10458, 718-817-4485 [email protected] ABSTRACT We describe a cognitive vision system for a mobile robot. This system works in a manner similar to the human vision system, using saccadic, vergence and pursuit movements to extract information from visual input. At each fixation, the system builds a 3D model of a small region, combining information about distance, shape, texture and motion. These 3D models are embedded within an overall 3D model of the robot's environment. This approach turns the computer vision problem into a search problem, with the goal of constructing a physically realistic model of the entire environment.
