Catadioptric omnidirectional sensors (catadioptric cameras) capture instantaneous images with panoramic 360 field of view. Entire surroundings are projected via a circularly symme...
We provide elementary geometric arguments to show that the principal point of cameras with small to moderate field of view cannot be reliably estimated from natural, noisy images ...
— In this paper we present a system that uses only vision to land a UAV on a runway. We describe a method for estimating the relative location of the runway as an image by perfor...
— This paper presents results of the application of simultaneous localisation and map building (SLAM) for an uninhibited aerial vehicle (UAV). Single vision camera and inertial m...
In field environments it is not usually possible to provide robots in advance with valid geometric models of its environment and task element locations. The robot or robot teams ne...
