Try these first

1. 1.

   What technologies are part of vision-based systems?

   Hint

   Think about what helps robots see.

2. 2.

   What does object recognition allow robots to do?

   Hint

   It helps to know what materials they are dealing with.

3. 3.

   What technology is primarily used in vision-based systems for distance measurement?

   • Cameras
   • LIDAR
   • Ultrasound

   Hint

   Consider laser-based technologies.

4. 4.

   True or False: Pose estimation helps robots determine their position relative to other objects.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Think if knowing position matters.

5. 5.

   Propose a project that utilizes vision-based systems in a smart city initiative. Detail how these systems can improve service delivery and efficiency.

   Hint

   Think about different city services and how robots could improve them.

6. 6.

   Analyze a scenario where a construction robot fails to recognize an obstacle. What could have gone wrong and suggest how improvements could be made.

   Hint

   Consider environmental factors that might impair visibility.
