The PANOPTIC Camera: A Plenoptic Sensor with Real-Time Omnidirectional Capability

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Schmid, Luigi Bagnato, Yusuf Leblebici, Laurent Jacques, Hossein Afshari

A new biologically-inspired vision sensor made of one hundred "eyes" is presented, which is suitable for real-time acquisition and processing of 3-D image sequences. This device, named the Panoptic camera, consists of a layered arrangement of approximately ...

Optic-Flow Based Control of a 46g Quadrotor

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Adrien Briod

We aim at developing autonomous miniature hov- ering flying robots capable of navigating in unstructured GPS- denied environments. A major challenge is the miniaturization of the embedded sensors and processors allowing such platforms to fly autonomously. ...

Robust Phase-Correlation based Registration of Airborne Videos using Motion Estimation

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Volker Gass, Frank Grégoire Jean de Morsier, Maurice Borgeaud

This paper presents a robust algorithm for the registration of airborne video sequences with reference images from a different source (airborne or satellite), based on phase-correlation. Phase-correlations using Fourier-Melin Invariant (FMI) descriptors al ...

Enhanced Omnidirectional Image Reconstruction Algorithm and its Real-Time Hardware

Alexandre Schmid, Yusuf Leblebici, Hossein Afshari, Abdulkadir Akin

Omnidirectional stereoscopy and depth estimation are complex problems of image processing to which the Panoptic camera offers a novel solution. The Panoptic camera is a biologically-inspired vision sensor made of multiple cameras. It is a polydioptric syst ...

Foreground Silhouette Extraction robust to Sudden Changes of background Appearance

Pierre Vandergheynst, Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Luigi Bagnato, Damien Colin Matti

Vision-based background subtraction algorithms model the intensity variation across time to classify a pixel as foreground. Unfortunately, such algorithms are sensitive to appearance changes of the background such as sudden changes of illumination or when ...

Scale Invariant Features and Polar Descriptors in Omnidirectional Imaging

Pascal Frossard, Zafer Arican

We propose a method to compute scale invariant features in omnidirectional images. We present a formulation based on Riemannian geometry for the definition of differential operators on non-Euclidian manifolds that describe the mirror and lens structure in ...

Estimating Ego-Motion in Panoramic Image Sequences with Inertial Measurements

Felix Stephan Schill

This paper considers the problem of estimating the focus of expansion of optical flow fields from panoramic image sequences due to ego-motion of the camera. The focus of expansion provides a measurement of the direction of motion of the vehicle that is a k ...
