Vision systems for service robotics applications have to cope with varying environmental conditions, partial occlusions, complex backgrounds and a large number of distractors (clut...
Novel similarity measures for object recognition and image matching are proposed, which are inherently robust against occlusion, clutter, and nonlinear illumination changes. They c...
A complete processing chain for visual object recognition is described in this paper. The system automatically detects individual objects on an assembly line, identifies their typ...
We describe an Augmented Reality system using the corners of a color cube for camera calibration. In the augmented image the cube is replaced by a computer generated virtual object...
We consider 3D object retrieval in which a polygonal mesh serves as a query and similar objects are retrieved from a collection of 3D objects. Algorithms proceed first by a normal...
In this article, we present a new method for visual face tracking that is carried out in a wavelet subspace. Initially, a wavelet representation for the face template is created, ...
In this work we describe a set of visual routines, which support a novel sensor free interface between a human and virtual objects. The visual routines detect, track and interpret ...
We show a framework for growth analysis of plant roots in object coordinates which is one requirement for the botanical evaluation of growth mechanisms in roots. The method present...
