TLDR
It is believed that a robot, which will be used in the authors' general living environment, is related to the concept of Intelligent Space, which are rooms or areas that are equipped with sensors, which enable the spaces to perceive and understand what is happening in them.Abstract:
This paper describes our concept of Intelligent Space. Intelligent Spaces are rooms or areas that are equipped with sensors, which enable the spaces to perceive and understand what is happening in them. With such features, people or systems in the Intelligent Space can use additional functions that are afforded by the space. This research field itself is not particularly related to robotics, but we believe robots under Intelligent Spaces have many interesting features. Intelligent Spaces are expected to have a broad range of applications such as in homes, offices, factories, etc. Thus, we can consider that a robot, which will be used in our general living environment, is related to the concept of Intelligent Space. Several applications of Intelligent Space are shown in this paper with descriptions.read more

Automatic camera pose estimation based on a flat surface map
TL;DR: A novel approach that performs extrinsic parameter estimation of a camera installed in a man-made environment using a single image and a novel image descriptor defined in quantized Hough space to perform 3D-2D matching process between line features from the 3D flat surface model and the 2D single image is proposed.

The computer for the 21st century
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose that specialized elements of hardware and software, connected by wires, radio waves and infrared, will soon be so ubiquitous that no-one will notice their presence.
