Image-Based Object Detection Approaches to be Used in Embedded Systems for Robots Navigation

This paper investigates the problem of object detection for real-time agents’ navigation using embedded systems. In real-world problems, a compromise between accuracy and speed must be found. In this paper, we consider a description of the architecture of different object detection algorithms, such as R-CNN and YOLO, to compare them on different variants of embedded systems using different datasets. As a result, we provide a trade-off study based on accuracy and speed for different object detection algorithms to choose the appropriate one depending on the specific application task.
