Optical flow based Obstacle Avoidance

Hello everyone , i am trying to build a obstacle avoiding robot with monocular vision and want to use the optical flow from the camera to make it take decisions and avoid some static obstacles in a room , such as walls , tables , chairs etc. How can i achieve it ?

Optical flow based Obstacle Avoidance

Hello everyone , i am trying to build a obstacle avoiding robot with monocular vision and want to use the optical flow from the camera to make it take decisions and avoid some static obstacles in a room , such as walls , tables , chairs etc. How can i achieve it ?

EDIT : I have read several papers , they suggest an approach of comparing the optical flow vectors in the camera view and if the right one are bigger than the left , then turn left to avoid the obstacle. However , I have not been able to understand how I can achieve that using c++ .
