A Neuromorphic Robot Vision System to Predict the Response of Visual Neurons
Abstract
The author of this chapter describes a binocular robotic vision system that was designed to emulate the neural images of cortical cells under vergence eye movements. The robotic vision system is constructed by employing a combinational strategy of neuromorphic engineering and conventional digital technology. The system consists of two silicon retinas and a field programmable gate array (FPGA). The silicon retinas carry out Laplacian-Gaussian-like spatial filtering, mimicking the response properties of the vertebrate retina. The outputs of the silicon retina chips on the left and right cameras are transmitted to the FPGA. The FPGA receives the outputs from the two simple cell chips and calculates the responses of complex cells based on the disparity energy model. This system provides complex cell outputs tuned to five different disparities in real-time. The vergence control signal is obtained by pooling these multiple complex cell responses. The system is useful for predicting the neural images of the complex cells and for evaluating the functional roles of cortical cells in real situations.
