Abstract

Marco is the name of a research mobile robot that is being developed at the Instituto de Robótica e Infomática Industrial of UPC-CSIC. It is designed with learning abilities to acquire information about indoor environments using various perception sensors. Marco uses video cameras and ultrasonic sensors to perceive the world, and pattern recognition and computer vision techniques to extract knowledge about it. In this paper we explain the objectives of this project and the techniques developed so far.
