Depth, contrast and view-based homing in outdoor scenes
Wolfgang Stürzl,Jochen Zeil +1 more
TL;DR: A model for the shape of IDFs is proposed as a tool for quantitative comparisons between the shapes of these functions in different scenes, and it is shown that IDFs of contrast-normalized snapshots are predominantly determined by the depth-structure and possibly also by occluding contours in a scene.
Journal ArticleDOI
How wasps acquire and use views for homing
TL;DR: Ground-nesting wasps are analyzed using synchronized high-speed cameras to determine 3D head position and orientation and evidence suggests that wasps monitor changing views during learning flights and use the differences they experience relative to previously encountered views to decide when to begin a new arc.
Journal ArticleDOI
The fine structure of honeybee head and body yaw movements in a homing task
TL;DR: This work uses high-speed video equipment to record the head and body movements of honeybees approaching and departing from a food source that was located between three landmarks in an indoor flight arena to investigate how gaze and flight control interact in a homing task.
Journal ArticleDOI
Goal seeking in honeybees: matching of optic flow snapshots?
TL;DR: It is shown that honeybees are able to use landmarks that have the same contrast and texture as the background and suggested that the bees use relative motion cues between the landmark and the background.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient visual homing based on Fourier transformed panoramic images
TL;DR: A coarse-to-fine homing strategy is proposed in order to achieve both a large catchment area and a high homing accuracy: the number of Fourier coefficients used is increased during the homing run.
