A Bionic Camera-Based Polarization Navigation Sensor
Navigation and positioning technology is closely related to our routine life activities, from travel to aerospace. Recently it has been found that Cataglyphis (a kind of desert ant) is able to detect the polarization direction of skylight and navigate according to this information. This paper presents a real-time bionic camera-based polarization navigation sensor. This sensor has two work modes...
متن کاملA Bionic Polarization Navigation Sensor and Its Calibration Method
The polarization patterns of skylight which arise due to the scattering of sunlight in the atmosphere can be used by many insects for deriving compass information. Inspired by insects' polarized light compass, scientists have developed a new kind of navigation method. One of the key techniques in this method is the polarimetric sensor which is used to acquire direction information from skylight...
متن کاملNavigation Sensor Fusion for a Geo-Referenced Camera
In many visualization and simulation efforts, acquiring the CADmodel is a principal bottleneck. We are developing automatic capture techniques which remove the “human in the loop” from CAD modeling tools, by extracting models directly from images. The tradeoff is that, in return for automation, these tools require some specialized instrumentation, and large numbers (typically thousands) of obse...
متن کاملCamera - Inertial Sensor Modeling and Alignment for Visual Navigation *
This article presents a technique for modeling and calibrating a camera with integrated low-cost inertial sensors, three gyros and three accelerometers for full 3D sensing. Inertial sensors attached to a camera can provide valuable data about camera pose and movement. In biological vision systems, inertial cues provided by the vestibular system, are fused with vision at an early processing stag...
متن کاملCamera-Inertial Sensor modelling and alignment for Visual Navigation
Inertial sensors attached to a camera can provide valuable data about camera pose and movement. In biological vision systems, inertial cues provided by the vestibular system, are fused with vision at an early processing stage. Vision systems in autonomous vehicles can also benefit by taking inertial cues into account. In order to use off-the-shelf inertial sensors attached to a camera, appropri...
