description | This study proposes a framework to detect and recognize household furniture using autonomous mobile robots. The proposed methodology is based on the analysis and integration of geometric features extracted over 3D point clouds. A relational graph is constructed using those features to model and recognize each piece of furniture. A set of sub-graphs corresponding to different partial views allows matching the robot’s perception with partial furniture models. A reduced set of geometric features is employed: horizontal and vertical planes and the legs of the furniture. These features are characterized through their properties, such as: height, planarity and area. A fast and linear method for the detection of some geometric features is proposed, which is based on histograms of 3D points acquired from an RGB-D camera onboard the robot. Similarity measures for geometric features and graphs are proposed, as well. Our proposal has been validated in home-like environments with two different mobile robotic platforms; and partially on some 3D samples of a database. |
