Newly developed color vision system for robotic visual perception

This paper describes a newly developed color vision model for robotic systems. This new model consists of a normal lens, a neutral density filter, an infrared filter, two different prisms, four different bands of optical pass filters, four monochromatic CCD cameras and a camera controller. This vision system is very effective by using some low-level processing technology to realize a higher level human-like color visual perception. A simple experiment was done to demonstrate human-like color vision by employing a modified opponent color theory.
