In this paper, we present a flexible new technique for single-viewpoint omnidirectional camera calibration. The proposed method only re-quires the camera to observe a planar pattern shown at a few different orienta-tions. Either the camera or the planar pa ...
In this paper, we present a novel technique for calibrating central omnidirectional cameras. The proposed procedure is very fast and completely automatic, as the user is only asked to collect a few images of a checker board, and click on its corner points. ...
This paper presents the development of radial eddy-current position sensors for high temperature active magnetic bearing (AMB) applications. Thick-film technology was used to realize silver coils printed on ceramic substrates. Long term measurements showed ...
This paper presents an improved feature-based 3D SLAM approach for a mobile robot equipped with a rotating laser scanner. The features are represented within the SPmodel, with associated planar segment information based on decimated triangle sets. An Exten ...
In this paper we derive theoretical results for the problem of on-line sensor calibration for a mobile robot. We consider the case of the odometry sensor. A first series of results regards the problem of understanding if a given system (consisting of a rob ...
