چکیده

In this paper, a novel technique combining intensity and range data is presented. Passive (intensity based) and active (range based) techniques used for 3D reconstruction have their limitations and separately, none of these techniques can solve all the problems inherent to the modelling of real environments. Our technique aims to demonstrate how both intensity and range data can be registered and combined into a long-range 3D system. The procedure needs an initial estimation for internal and external camera parameters for two or more intensity images. The technique uses passive triangulation of the intensity data to refine the initial camera calibrations and ensure a good registration of range and video data sets. Once a reliable calibration is achieved, corresponding points from the intensity images are triangulated and introduced in the original range data. With our technique, it is possible to complete the models in areas where data is missing or to increase the resolution in areas of high interest and 3D contents.

3D Modelling of In-Door Scenes Using Laser Range Sensing

This paper describes a 3D scene analysis system that is capable of modelling real-world scenes, based on data acquired by a Laser Range Finder on board of a mobile robot. Laser range images directly provide access to three dimensional information, as opposed to intensity images. This characteristic makes range data suited to build 3D models of objects, and in general real world scenes. Results ...

Characterizing the Validity and Real-World Utility of Health Technology Assessments in Healthcare: Future Directions; Comment on “Problems and Promises of Health Technologies: The Role of Early Health Economic Modelling”

With their article, Grutters et al raise an important question: What do successful health technology assessments (HTAs) look like, and what is their real-world utility in decision-making? While many HTAs are published in peer-reviewed journals, many are considered proprietary and their attributes remain confidential, limiting researchers’ ability to answer these questio...

Fusion of intensity and range data for improved 3D models

In this paper, we present techniques combining intensity and range data to achieve more realistic three-dimensional models from real world scenes. The principal novelty is the use of the intensity information not only for texturing the final 3D model but also to improve the segmentation of the range data. The technique registers video and range, i.e., the camera parameters are computed in order...
