We invite scientists from omnidirectional vision and robotics communities to attend the „Workshop on Omnidirectional Robot Vision“ and to discuss sensors, algorithms and applications of omnidirectional vision for robotics. Omnidirectional vision research was always greatly stimulated by mobile robotics and it was finding its major applications there. Recently, a broader community has started working with omnidirectional sensors and commercial applications appeared also in surveillance and automotive industry. We wish to encourage active collaboration of computer vision and robotic researchers to develop more robust, practical and applicable systems in robotics and elsewhere.
A Special Issue of Robotics and Autonomous Systems (Journal, Elsevier) based on the workshop papers will be edited after the workshop. Special Issue - Call for Papers SPECIAL ISSUE: Starting from a selection of the best papers presented to the workshop a special issue of Robotics and Autonomous Systems (RAS Journal, Elsevier) titled "Omnidirectional Robot Vision" will be edited after the workshop. Topics of interest - Omnidirectional sensors for robotics - Omnidirectional vision for mobile robots, flying robots and manipulators - Omnidirectional vision for robot navigation and safety - Omnidirectional vision for multi-robot teams (including RoboCup legues) - Omnidirectional visual odometry - Omnidirectional SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping) - Omnidirectional vision in industrial robotics and automotive industry
