Virtual View Generation with a Hybrid Camera Array

Engin Tola, Zeyu Zhang

Virtual view synthesis from an array of cameras has been an essential element of three-dimensional video broadcasting/conferencing. In this paper, we propose a scheme based on a hybrid camera array consisting of four regular video cameras and one time-of-f ...

Single-Photon Synchronous Detection

Edoardo Charbon, Ties Jan Henderikus Kluter, Cristiano Niclass, Claudio Favi, Frédéric Monnier

Phase and intensity of light are detected simultaneously using a fully digital imaging technique: single-photon synchronous detection. This approach has been theoretically and experimentally investigated in this paper. We designed a fully integrated camera ...

Single-Photon Synchronous Detection

Edoardo Charbon, Ties Jan Henderikus Kluter, Cristiano Niclass, Claudio Favi, Frédéric Monnier

A novel imaging technique is proposed for fully digital detection of phase and intensity of light. A fully integrated camera implementing the new technique was fabricated in a 0.35μm CMOS technology. When coupled to a modulated light source, the camera can ...

Semiconductor Image Sensing

Peter Seitz, Nicolas Blanc

Silicon is an excellent detector material for electromagnetic radiation in the wavelength range of 0.1 to 1000 nm. In the visible spectral range (400-700 nm), external quantum efficiencies approaching 100% are obtained. When combined with the amazing minia ...

Hydrodynamics of the free surface flow in Pelton turbine buckets

Alexandre Perrig

The design of Pelton turbines has always been more difficult than that of reaction turbines, and their performances lower. Indeed, the Pelton turbines combine 4 types of flows: (i) confined, steady-state flow in the piping systems and injector, (ii) free w ...

Onboard Flow Visualization in a Pelton Turbine Bucket

François Avellan, Alexandre Perrig

Flow visualizations using endoscopes in a 21-bucket single-injector reduced scale Pelton turbine are performed for 2 operating points. 2 types of visualizations are performed with a CMOS high-speed camera: (i) an onboard visualization of the flow in the bu ...

Flow in a Pelton Turbine Bucket: Numerical and Experimental Investigations

François Avellan, Mohamed Farhat, Alexandre Perrig

The aim of the paper is to present the results of investigations conducted on the free surface flow in a Pelton turbine model bucket. Unsteady numerical simulations, based on the two-phase homogeneous model, are performed together with wall pressure measur ...

Numerical Flow Analysis in a Pelton Turbine Bucket

François Avellan, Mohamed Farhat, Alexandre Perrig

The flow in the Pelton turbine bucket is three-dimensional, unsteady, turbulent, features a free surface, and is influenced by the rotation-induced forces. It is therefore difficult to investigate how the energy transfer takes place between the water flow ...

Virtual Sensor Design

Sabine Süsstrunk, Roberto Costantini

We present a virtual digital camera sensor, whose aim is to simulate a real (physical) image capturing sensor.To accomplish this task, the virtual sensor operates in two steps. First, it accepts a physical description of agiven scene and simulates the enti ...

A CMOS 3D camera with millimetric depth resolution

Edoardo Charbon, Pierre-André Besse, Cristiano Niclass, Alexis Rochas

A 3D imager is presented capable of capturing the depth map of an arbitrary scene. Depth is measured by computing the time-of-flight of a ray of light as it leaves the source and is reflected by the objects in the scene. The round-trip time is converted to ...
