Abstract
The present invention is to provide a system, a method, and a program for adjusting the altitude of a robot provided with an omnidirectional camera which provides entire visual field images with improved image quality. The system 1 for adjusting the altitude of a robot 200 provided with an omnidirectional camera 100 acquires the altitude of the omnidirectional camera 100, adjusts the altitude of the robot 200 so that the acquired altitude is a constant, and generates a 360-degree image taken by the omnidirectional camera 100 by synthetic processing in a predetermined altitude error range.
Claims5
A system for adjusting the altitude of a robot provided with an omnidirectional camera, comprising:
- an altitude acquisition unit that acquires the altitude of the omnidirectional camera;
- an altitude adjusting unit that adjusts the altitude of the robot so that the acquired altitude is a constant;
- and
- a synthetic-image generating unit that generates a 360-degree image taken by the omnidirectional camera by synthetic processing in a predetermined altitude error range.
A method for adjusting the altitude of a robot provided with an omnidirectional camera, comprising the steps of:
- acquiring the altitude of the omnidirectional camera;
- adjusting the altitude of the robot so that the acquired altitude is a constant;
- and
- generating a 360-degree image taken by the omnidirectional camera by synthetic processing in a predetermined altitude error range.
A computer program product for use in a system for adjusting the altitude of a robot provided with an omnidirectional camera, comprising a non-transitory computer usable medium having a set of instructions physically embodied therein, the set of instructions including computer readable program code, which when executed by the system causes the information processing unit to:
- acquire the altitude of the omnidirectional camera;
- adjust the altitude of the robot so that the acquired altitude is a constant;
- and
- generate a 360-degree image taken by the omnidirectional camera by synthetic processing in a predetermined altitude error range.
