A LIDAR Streaming Architecture for Mobile Robotics with Application to 3D Structure Characterization
We present a novel LIDAR streaming architecture for real-time, on-board processing using unmanned robots.
Stable Vision-Aided Navigation for Large-Area Augmented Reality
In this paper, we present a unified approach for a drift-free and jitter-reduced vision-aided navigation system.
In-Vitro Imaging of Femoral Artery Nitinol Stents for Deformation Analysis
The present study sought to develop a method of imaging and analyzing stent deformation in vitro with use of a calibrated test device.
Flexible Depth of Field Photography
We present an imaging system that enables one to control the DOF in new and powerful ways. Our approach is to vary the position and/or orientation of the image detector during the integration time of a single photograph.
Large-Scale Visual Odometry for Rough Terrain
We present the results of several years of work on an integrated system to localize a mobile robot in rough outdoor terrain using visual odometry, with an increasing degree of precision.
Seamless Indoor/Outdoor 6 DOF Tracking of Trainees and Weapons
In this paper we present a system for tracking the trainee’s location, head orientation, and weapon orientation that provides high precision and does not require an instrumented site.
Class-Specific Grasping of 3D Objects from a Single 2D Image
Our goal is to grasp 3D objects given a single image, by using prior 3D shape models of object classes
Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion Algorithm for Ubiquitous Infrastructure-Free Localization in Vision-Impaired Environments
In this paper, we present a unified approach for a camera tracking system based on an error-state Kalman filter algorithm.
