A Method of Rapid Position Estimation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Initiation of insect’s optomotor reaction, researchers developed the element movement detector (EMD) in motion detection. The detector can estimate the motion parameters of the moving target quickly in 2-D spatial orientation, such as angular velocity and angular rotation. Based on the function of compound eyes, we promoted a fast positioning EMD model. It has the ability in positioning in 3-D spatial orientation with wide field of view (FOV). And then we did some experiments to verify that the positioning algorithm had higher estimation accuracy of position in time.
