Abstract
Omnidirectional vision sensors, which have been proposed in 1970, are recently studied in Computer Vision and Multimedia research. This paper discusses features of previously developed omnidirectional vision sensors and their problems in the design. Further, this paper proposes designs of low-cost and compact omnidirectional vision sensors and their new applications. The author considers utilization of omnidirectional vision sensor will be a key issue in Computer Vision and Multimedia applications. Keywords: Omnidirectional vision sensor, Omnidirectional Image, Visual surveillance, Multimedia, Robot vision. 1 Introduction Physical agents living in complex environments, such as humans and animals, need two types of visual sensing abilities. One is to gaze particular objects with a precise but small retina, the other is to look around the environment with a wide but coarse retina. Both visual sensing mechanisms are required for realizing robust and flexible visual behaviors. Especiall...
