In order to overcome the narrow visual field of binocular vision and the low precision of monocular vision, a binocular biomimetic eye platform with 4 rotational degrees of freedom is designed based on the structural characteristics of human eyes, so that the robot can achieve human-like environment perception with binocular stereo vision and monocular motion vision. Initial location and parameters calibration of the biomimetic eye platform are accomplished based on the vision alignment strategy and hand-eye calibration. The methods of binocular stereo perception and monocular motion stereo perception are given based on the dynamically changing external parameters. The former perceives the 3D information through the two images obtained by two cameras in real-time and their relative posture, and the latter perceives the 3D information by synthesize multiple images obtained by one camera and its corresponding postures at multiple adjacent moments. Experimental results shows that the relative perception accuracy of binocular vision is 0.38% and the relative perception accuracy of monocular motion vision is 0.82%. In conclusion, the method proposed can broaden the field of binocular vision, and ensure the accuracy of binocular perception and monocular motion perception.
