We discuss the recognition of obstacles by detecting a plane using relative disparity maps obtained from a small range image sensor incorporated in a humanoid. Our proposal enables easy plane detection and obstacle recognition using relative disparity from a reference plane alone. We built an integrated controller that feeds back obstacle information to the humanoid. We confirmed through experiments that the humanoid recognized obstacles and autonomously stopped walking.
