THE PROJECT

The TACO (Three-dimensional Adaptive Camera with Object Detection and Foveation) project aimed at enhancing the abilities of service robots by improving the sensing system with real 3D foveation properties and increasing their ability to interact with their natural environment in a more natural and human-like way.
