Most simultaneous localisation and mapping (SLAM) solutions were developed for navigation of non-cognitive robots. By using a variety of sensors, the distances to walls and other objects are determined, which are then used to generate a map of the environment and to update the robot’s position. When developing a cognitive robot, such a solution is not appropriate since it requires accurate sensors and precise odometry, also lacking fundamental features of cognition such as time and memory. In this paper we present a SLAM solution in which such features are taken into account and integrated. Moreover, this method does not require precise odometry nor accurate ranging sensors.

Ultrasonic, infrared, laser and other sensors are being applied in robotics. Although combinations of these have allowed robots to navigate, they are only suited for specific scenarios, depending on their limitations. Recent advances in computer vision are turning cameras into useful low-cost sensors that can operate in most types of environments. Cameras enable robots to detect obstacles, recognize objects, obtain visual odometry, detect and recognize people and gestures, among other possibilities. In this paper we present a completely biologically inspired vision system for robot navigation. It comprises stereo vision for obstacle detection, and object recognition for landmark-based navigation. We employ a novel keypoint descriptor which codes responses of cortical complex cells. We also present a biologically inspired saliency component, based on disparity and colour.
