Abstract

The detection and classification of moving objects is a key task in many control systems. This paper presents a solution for this problem based on a laser range scanner. The method can be summarized as follows. A set of 3D data points on the object surface is obtained using the scanner. A small number of features is then computed to represent the object boundary. In fact, three alternative features are considered. Classification algorithms are then designed and evaluated using real data. The experimental tests show that the proposed techniques allow a robust classification of moving objects based on range information.
