Download or read book Calibration and Orientation of Cameras in Computer Vision written by Armin Gruen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was conceived during the Workshop "Calibration and Orientation of Cameras in Computer Vision" at the XVIIth Congress of the ISPRS (In ternational Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing), in July 1992 in Washington, D. C. The goal of this workshop was to bring photogrammetry and computer vision experts together in order to exchange ideas, concepts and approaches in camera calibration and orientation. These topics have been addressed in photogrammetry research for a long time, starting in the sec ond half of the 19th century. Over the years standard procedures have been developed and implemented, in particular for metric cameras, such that in the photogrammetric community such issues were considered as solved prob lems. With the increased use of non-metric cameras (in photogrammetry they are revealingly called "amateur" cameras), especially CCD cameras, and the exciting possibilities of acquiring long image sequences quite effortlessly and processing image data automatically, online and even in real-time, the need to take a new and fresh look at various calibration and orientation issues became obvious. Here most activities emerged through the computer vision commu nity, which was somewhat unaware as to what had already been achieved in photogrammetry. On the other hand, photogrammetrists seemed to ignore the new and interesting studies, in particular on the problems of orienta tion, that were being performed by computer vision experts.

This book was released on 2010-11-05 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are the many highly capable autonomous robots that have been promised for novel applications driven by society, industry, and research not available - day despite the tremendous progress in robotics science and systems achieved during the last decades? Unfortunately, steady improvements in speci?c robot abilities and robot hardware have not been matched by corresponding robot performance in real world environments. This is mainly due to the lack of - vancements in robot software that master the development of robotic systems of ever increasing complexity. In addition, fundamental open problems are still awaiting sound answers while the development of new robotics applications s- fersfromthelackofwidelyusedtools,libraries,andalgorithmsthataredesigned in a modular and performant manner with standardized interfaces. Simulation environments are playing a major role not only in reducing development time and cost, e. g. , by systematic software- or hardware-in-the-loop testing of robot performance, but also in exploring new types of robots and applications. H- ever,their use may still be regardedwith skepticism. Seamless migrationof code using robot simulators to real-world systems is still a rare circumstance, due to the complexity of robot, world, sensor, and actuator modeling. These challenges drive the quest for the next generation of methodologies and tools for robot development. The objective of the International Conference on Simulation, Modeling, and ProgrammingforAutonomous Robots (SIMPAR) is to o?er a unique forum for these topics and to bring together researchersfrom academia and industry to identify and solve the key issues necessary to ease the development of increasingly complex robot software.
Book Synopsis Stereo vision-based road condition monitoring by : Brunken, Hauke
Download or read book Stereo vision-based road condition monitoring written by Brunken, Hauke and published by Universitätsverlag der TU Berlin. This book was released on 2021-05-12 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When planning road construction measures, it is essential to have up-to-date information on road conditions. If this information is not to be obtained manually, it is currently obtained using laser scanners mounted on mobile mapping vehicles, which can measure the 3D road profile. However, a large number of mobile mapping vehicles would be necessary to record an entire road network on a regular basis. Since 2D road damages can be found automatically on monocular camera images, the idea was born to use a stereo camera system to capture the 3D profile of roads. With stereo camera systems, it would be possible to equip a large number of vehicles and regularly collect data from large road networks. In this thesis, the potential applications of a stereo camera system for measuring road profiles, which is mounted behind the windshield of a vehicle, are investigated. Since this requires a calibration of the stereo camera system, but the effort for the user should be kept low, the camera self-calibration for this application is also examined. 3D reconstruction from stereoscopic images is a well-studied topic, but its application on road surfaces with little and repetitive textures requires special algorithms. For this reason, a new stereo method was developed. It is based on the plane-sweep approach in combination with semi-global matching. It was tested with different measures for pixel comparison. Furthermore, the plane-sweep approach was implemented in a neural network that solves the stereo correspondence problem in a single step. It uses the stereoscopic images as input and provides an elevation image as output. A completely new approach was developed for the self-calibration of mono cameras and stereo camera systems. Previous methods search for feature points in several images of the same scene. The points are matched between the images and used for the calibration. In contrast to these methods, the proposed method uses feature maps instead of feature points to compare multiple views of one and the same plane. To estimate the unknown parameters, the backpropagation algorithm is used together with the gradient descent method. The measurements obtained by stereoscopic image processing were compared with those obtained by industrial laser scanners. They show that both measurements are very close to each other and that a stereoscopic camera system is in principle suitable for capturing the surface profile of a road. Experiments show that the proposed self-calibration method is capable of estimating all parameters of a complex camera model, including lens distortion, with high precision. Bei der Planung von Straßenbaumaßnahmen ist es unabdingbar, über aktuelle Informationen über den Straßenzustand zu verfügen. Sollen diese Informationen nicht manuell gewonnen werden, werden derzeit Messfahrzeug mit Laserscannern verwendet, welche das 3D-Straßenprofil vermessen können. Für die regelmäßige Erfassung eines gesamten Straßennetzes wäre jedoch eine große Anzahl von Messfahrzeugen erforderlich. Da 2D-Straßenschäden automatisch auf monokularen Kamerabildern gefunden werden können, entstand die Idee, ein Stereokamerasystem zur Erfassung des 3D-Profils zu verwenden. Eine große Anzahl von Fahrzeugen könnte damit ausgerüstet werden und es könnten regelmäßig Daten von großen Straßennetzen erfasst werden. In dieser Arbeit werden die Einsatzmöglichkeiten eines Stereokamerasystems zur Messung von Straßenprofilen untersucht, dass sich hinter der Windschutzscheibe eines Fahrzeugs befindet. Da hierzu das Stereokamerasystems kalibriert sein muss, der Aufwand für den Anwender aber geringgehalten werden soll, wird außerdem die Selbstkalibrierung für diesen Einsatzzweck untersucht. Die 3D-Rekonstruktion aus stereoskopischen Bildern ist ein viel untersuchtes Thema, aber ihre Anwendung auf Straßenoberflächen mit wenig und sich wiederholenden Texturen erfordert spezielle Algorithmen. Aus diesem Grund wurde ein neues Stereoverfahren entwickelt. Es basiert auf dem Plane-sweep-Ansatz in Kombination mit Semi-global Matching. Es wurde mit verschiedene Maßen für den Vergleich von Pixeln getestet. Darüber hinaus wurde der Plane-sweep-Ansatz in einem neuronalen Netzwerk implementiert, das das Stereo-Korrespondenzproblem in einem einzigen Schritt löst. Es verwendet die stereoskopischen Bilder als Eingabe und liefert als Ausgabe ein Höhenbild. Für die Selbstkalibrierung von Monokameras und Stereokamerasystemen wurde ein völlig neuer Ansatz entwickelt. Bisherige Methoden suchen nach Merkmalspunkten in mehreren Bildern der gleichen Szene. Die Punkte werden zwischen den Bildern zugeordnet und für die Kalibrierung verwendet. Die vorgeschlagene Methode verwendet anstelle von Merkmalspunkten Feature-Maps um mehrere Ansichten derselben Ebene zu vergleichen. Zur Schätzung der unbekannten Parameter wird der Backpropagation-Algorithmus zusammen mit dem Gradientenabstiegsverfahren verwendet. Die durch stereoskopische Bildverarbeitung erhaltenen Messungen wurden mit Messungen von industriellen Laserscannern verglichen. Sie zeigen, dass beide sehr nahe beieinander liegen und dass ein Stereokamerasystem für die Erfassung des Oberflächenprofils einer Straße grundsätzlich geeignet ist. Experimente zeigen, dass die neue Selbstkalibrierungsmethode in der Lage ist, alle Parameter eines komplexen Kameramodells, einschließlich der Linsenverzerrung, mit hoher Präzision abzuschätzen.
