Hardware Implementation of an Omnidirectional Camera with Real-Time 3D Imaging Capability

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

A novel hardware implementation of an omnidirectional image sensor is presented which is capable of acquiring and processing 3D image sequences in real time. The system consists of a hemispherical arrangement of a large number of CMOS imagers, connecting t ...

Analysis of Multiview Omnidirectional Images in a Spherical Framework

Zafer Arican

With the increasing demand of information for more immersive applications such as Google Street view or 3D movies, the efficient analysis of visual data from cameras has gained more importance. This visual information permits to extract some crucial inform ...

Colouring the near infrared

Sabine Süsstrunk

Current digital camera sensors are inherently sensitive to the near-infrared part of the spectrum. To prevent the near-IR contamination of images, an IR blocking filter (hot mirror) is placed in front of the sensor. In this work, we start by replacing the ...

Application of 3D range camera in virtual human-computer interfaces

Huan Du

In this work, we propose new ways to employ 3D-ranging systems in advanced human-computer interfaces and show that they can be used for precise hand-tracking systems aiming at virtual keyboard or mouse applications. We first implement a Structured Light (S ...

Multi-camera 3d person tracking with particle filter in a surveillance environment

Jean-Marc Odobez

In this work we present and evaluate a novel 3D approach to track single people in surveillance scenarios, using multiple cameras. The problem is formulated in a Bayesian filtering framework, and solved through sampling approximations (i.e. using a particl ...

Near-obstacle flight with small UAVs

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Antoine Beyeler

Autonomous flight in confined or cluttered environments such as houses or urban canyons requires high manoeuvrability, fast mapping from sensors to actuators and very limited overall system weight. Although flying animals are well capable of solving this p ...

Shot noise, refractive index tomography and aberrations estimation in digital holographic microscopy

Florian Charrière

The present thesis develops some specific aspects of digital holographic microscopy (DHM), namely the effect of shot noise on the phase image accuracy, the use of DHM in micro-tomography and in aberrations evaluation of a microscope objective (MO). DHM is ...

Spatio-temporal human pose detection

Miodrag Dimitrijevic

This thesis proposes a Chamfer-based method for human body pose detection that combines silhouette matching, motion information, and statistical relevance estimates in an original way. We demonstrate that our method can not only detect people but also reco ...

A Virtual Keyboard Based on True-3D Optical Ranging

Edoardo Charbon, Huan Du, Félix Lustenberger

In this paper, a complete system is presented which mimics a QWERTY keyboard on an arbitrary surface. The system consists of a pattern projector and a true-3D range camera for detecting the typing events. We exploit depth information acquired with the 3D r ...
