Abstract
Generally the background of the present invention is the field of artificial vision systems, i.e. systems having a visual sensing means (e.g. a video camera) and a following processing stage implemented using a computing unit. The processing stage outputs a representation of the visually analysed scene, which output can then be fed to control different actors, such as e.g. parts of a vehicle (automobile, plane, . . . ) or a robot, preferably an autonomous robot such as e.g. a humanoid robot.
