Direct terrain classification from monocular images for autonomous navigation of planetary rovers is a relatively new and challenging research area, not only because of the hardware limitation of a rover, but also because the rocks and obstacles to be detected exhibit diverse morphologies and have no uniform properties to distinguish them from background soil. We present a survey of recently developed object detection techniques that can be useful for terrain classification for planetary rovers. We start with summarizing current vision-based terrain classification methods. We then provide a comprehensive and structured overview of recent object detection techniques, focusing on those applicable to terrain classification.
