Abstract

This article describes an intelligent vision system that absorbs useful information from its environment and draws useful conclusions. This system can give instructions to locate vacant seats that are currently occupied in a theater. The extraction of useful information without viewing or exposing the inside details of an environment through an active vision system is proposed. Reasoning-based conclusions are drawn for optimum searching. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated using an experiment.
