Abstract
Robot vision is a kind of science and technology concerned with multiple disciplines to enable a robot to see. Its specified aspects that are attracting the attention of the researchers in robot community include architecture and calibration of visual systems, visual measurement methods and visual control approaches. The aspects above are investigated and analyzed according to current works, respectively. Furthermore, their tendencies are also predicted. The visual measurement principles from parallax to knowledge and the visual control strategies from traditional control methods to humanoid approaches are regarded to have promising future.
Keywords: Architecture, calibration, visual measurement, visual control, robot vision.
