Optical triangulation, an active reconstruction technique, is known to be an accurate method but has several shortcomings due to occlusion and laser reflectance properties of the...
One goal for future Mars missions is for a rover to be able to navigate autonomously to science targets not visible to the rover, but seen in orbital or descent images. This can b...

This paper describes a catadioptric microsensor for multidirectional imaging and 3D egomotion computation. Inspired by the wide viewing angle of insects’ compound eyes, we show ...

In this paper, we describe a method for recovering camera parameters from perspective views of daylight shadows in a scene, given only minimal geometric information determined fro...
We investigate the problem of automatically creating 3D models of man-made environments that we represent as collections of textured planes. A typical approach is to automatically...
This paper presents a new robot-vision system architecture for real-time moving object localization. The 6-DOF (3 translation and 3 rotation) motion of the objects is detected and...
