Low Level Detection and Tracking for Robust Following of a Single Person in Cluttered Environment
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: To deploy mobile robots in spaces that they will share with humans, mobile robots should have social navigation methods. One important feature to design such methods is the ability to follow a moving person. In this paper, we present how we detect and track a moving person that our mobile robot is following. A low level detection of the moving person followed, to detect the person independently of their position and orientation with respect to the mobile robot, is combined with a sliding window approach to track the moving person. Some experimental results show the robustness of the method on real scenarios.
