DEVELOPMENT OF A FAULT INJECTION TOOL & DATASET FOR VERIFICATION OF CAMERA BASED PERCEPTION IN ROBOTIC SYSTEMS

Abstract

Nowadays, camera-based perception is most popular topic in robotic systems. Verification of camera-based perception systems are crucial and difficult with current tools and methods. This study proposes Camera Fault Injection Tool (CamFITool), which enables different kind of fault injection methods to RGB and TOF cameras in order to perform verification and validation activities on robotic systems. Besides, Fault Injected Image Database which is created by CamFITool is introduced. In addition, the study guides to readers to create new datasets by injecting faults into existing image libraries or camera streams with CamFITool. As a result, CamFITool, an open-source fault injection tool, which is a critical tool for assessing of fault tolerant systems’ safety and security, is proposed. Also, a fault injected image dataset created by CamFITool for verification of camera-based perception studies in robotic systems is given.
