Objective

The objetive is to use a RGB-D camera. Detect the floor close to the camera with the 3D data and then learn color patterns in order to analyze the rest of the RGB information. The final effect is like if the 3D camera range was increased.

This project is a continuation of the Jose Pardeiro's Bachelor Thesis. In this case, the floor color is analyzed using the Delta-E divergence measure (insetad of the Mahalanobis distance). The main algorithm change also a bit. Now, neighborhoods are considered when labelling the ground. This improves the results of the floor segmentation and estimation.

Results

Results for differnt parameters. Green: labelled as floor by 3D data. Blue: estimated as floor by the algorithm.
