In this thesis we present a comparison of multiple approaches to visual terrain classification for outdoor mobile robots based on local features. For this purpose, we put a camera on a mobile robot and use it to capture images which are then analyzed to recognize the terrains present in these images. There are two sets of approaches that we use to classify terrains. The first is based on greyscale images and the second one is based on color images. For greyscale images, we use two different robot platforms for two different scenarios. The first robot platform is a wheeled outdoor robot. The second platform is a flying robot. For terrain classification, we modify and test three approaches called SURF, Daisy and Contrast Context Histogram, wh...
