A vehicle's steering is a particular system in that it is exposed to individual subjective reviews based on criteria that are hard to assess quantitatively. Haptic design of such systems is a prime concern that has been at the center of industrial developm ...
Technological solutions for obstacle-detection systems have been proposed to prevent accidents in safety-transport applications. In order to avoid the limits of these proposed technologies, an obstacle-detection system utilizing stereo cameras is proposed ...
Detecting car taillights at night is a task which can nowadays be accomplished very fast on cheap hardware. We rely on such detections to build a vision-based system that, coupling them in a rule-based fashion, is able to detect and track vehicles. This al ...
Over the last few years, research had been conducted on how to develop basic mobility aid for visually impaired and blind people using vision and image processing techniques. However, our research at Geodetic Engineering Laboratory has taken a different vi ...
This paper gives an overview of a vision-based wearable computer system ’SNAP&TELL’, which performs real-time gesture tracking for recognizing objects in the scene including outdoor landmarks. Our system uses a single camera to capture images which are pro ...
Opportunistic activity and context recognition systems draw from the characteristic to use sensing devices according to a recognition goal at runtime that just happen to be available instead of pre-defining them at the design time of the system. Whenever a ...
Micro aerial vehicles (MAVs) are a rapidly growing area of research and development in robotics. For autonomous robot operations, localization has typically been calculated using GPS, external camera arrays, or onboard range or vision sensing. In cluttered ...
