Scientific paper

The paper describes the design of a small, light, cheap, and low-power vision system, called Mobot Vision System, for guiding a mobile robot on the surface of Mars (and for other conditions as well). The purpose of the Mobot Vision System is to process real-time visual input and, as output, provide information about the relative location of safe and unsafe areas for the robot to go as well as to track some other features on the Martian surface (such as the lander). The system is designed to be self-contained, with its own camera and on-board processing unit. It draws a small amount of power and exchanges a very small amount of information with the host robot. The paper includes a block diagram of the Mobot Vision System.
