    Abstract

    Pose estimation concerns systems or models dealing with the determination of a static object’s pose using, in this case, vision. This paper approaching the problem with an active vision-based solution, that integrates both perception and action in the same model. The problem is solved using a combination of neural networks for object detection and a reinforcement learning architecture for moving a camera and estimating the pose. A robotic implementation of the proposed active vision system is used for testing with promising results. Experiments show that our approach does not only solve the simple task of planar visual pose estimation, but also exhibits robustness to changes in the environment.
