It firstly compares the characteristics of human eyes and robot eyes. Then some evaluation criteria are addressed to assess the lighting conditions. A bio-inspired method is adopted to avoid the visual glare which is caused by either direct illumination from large light sources or indirect illumination reflected by smooth surfaces. Appropriate methods are proposed to optimize the pose and optical parameters of the light source and the vision camera.展开更多

It is not only the inheritance and development of artificial intelligence, but also from a new point to understand and grasp the intelligent intrinsic. With the recent advances in cognitive science, we now have the ability to mine more details of the human brain to obtain valuable insight about what is happening in the brain.展开更多
