We propose a smart camera which performs video analysis and generates an MPEG-7 compliant stream. By producing a content-based metadata description of the scene, the MPEG-7 camera extends the capabilities of conventional cameras. The metadata is then direc ...
We present an MPEG--7 compliant description of video sequences for scalable transmission and reconstruction. The proposed method is content-based and permits efficient and flexible video coding while keeping the benefits of textual descriptions in database ...
Analogue wireless cameras have been employed for decades, however they have not become an universal solution due to their difficulties of set up and use. The main problem is the link robustness which mainly depends on the requirement of a line-of-sight vie ...
We have designed a wearable Mixed Reality (MR) framework which allows to real-time render game-like 3D scenes on see-through head-mounted displays (see through HMDs) and to localize the user position within aknown internet wireless area. Our equipment weig ...
A new image-guided microscope system using augmented reality image overlays has been developed. With this system, CT cut-views and segmented objects such as tumors that have been previously extracted from preoperative tomographic images can be directly dis ...
Remote detection by camera offers a versatile means for recording people activities. Relying principally on changes in video images, the method tends to fail in presence of shadows and illumination changes. This paper explores a possible remedy to these pr ...
A new method of calibration is proposed for active visual sensing for use in 3D analysis. The method, based on an adaptation of the two-camera plane model, permits the calibration of a mobile camera as a function of the position and orientation of the came ...
This work addresses the optimization of TV-resolution MPEG-2 video streams to be transmitted over lossy packet networks. This paper introduces a new scene-complexity adaptive mechanism, namely the Adaptive MPEG-2 Information Structuring (AMIS) mechanism. A ...
While a first generation of video coding techniques proposed to remove the redundancies in and between image frames to get smaller bitstreams, second generation schemes like MPEG-4 and MPEG-7 aim at doing content-based coding and interactivity. To reach th ...
