Abstract:	低階攝影機有標準化軟硬體介面與價格低的優點，在機器人系統上有普及應用的潛力。缺點是低階攝影機的影像擷取頻率通常低於30Hz，所擷取的影像會有模糊現象。另外，由於即時運算能力的限制，機器人應用視覺感測器通常只能處理低解析度的影像，影像模糊現象很難藉由提高解析度與影像處理方法加以改善。本論文針對所擷取的低解析度與模糊的場景影像，發展有效的影像特徵偵測、描述、與比對方法，建立一致性高的稀疏視覺式特徵地圖，以便應用於機器人同時定位與建圖。在影像特徵描述與比對方面，將規劃強健的特徵描述方法，應用在低解析度的模糊影像，以提高特徵成功比對率。另外，也探討灰階影像區塊特徵描述方法，應用在視覺式特徵地圖的可能性。針對影像特徵偵測與描述方法的效能比較，本研究也規劃特徵可重複性的測試與機器人定位的地面基準測試等實驗。其中特徵可重複性會直接影響視覺式地圖的特徵數量，進而影響狀態估測器的效能。實驗結果顯示本論文所規劃的強健特徵描述方法，在低階攝影機所引起的模糊影像中，能有效提高特徵可重複性與降低地圖的特徵數量。 Low-end camera has the advantages of standardized hardware and software interfaces with low prices as well as has the potential for a wide application in robotic system. However, the shortcoming is that the image acquisition rate of low-end camera is usually lower than 30Hz. Low image acquisition rate will cause the captured image to be blurred. Due to the limitations of real-time computation, the application of robot vision sensors usually only deals with low-resolution images. Therefore, the methods of enhancing the resolution and advanced image processing will not be considered in robot vision application to resolve the problem of image blurring. In this thesis, an effective image feature detection, description, and matching method will be developed for the low resolution and blurred scene image in order to establish high-persistency visual sparse map in robot simultaneous localization and mapping applications. In feature description and matching procedure, a robust feature description method is planned in this thesis and applied to deal with blurred image and improve the matching rate. Furthermore, the image description method using grayscale image patch will be investigated. The experiments of features repeatability and ground truth are carried out to validate the performance of image feature detection and description. The features repeatability will directly affect the number of feature of the visual map, and further influence the performance of state estimator. The experimental results show that the proposed feature description method can effectively improve the features repeatability in blurred images captured by low-end camera and further reduce the number of map features.
