چکیده

We present an algorithm that can segment and track partial planar templates, from a sequence of images taken from a moving camera. By “partial planar template”, we mean that the template is the projection of a surface patch that is only partially planar; some of the points may correspond to other surfaces. The algorithm segments each image template to identify the pixels that belong to the dominant plane, and determines the three dimensional structure of that plane. We show that our algorithm improves the accuracy of visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM), especially in scenes where surface discontinuities are common.

Segmentation and tracking of nonplanar templates to improve VSLAM

In this paper we address the problem of visual simultaneous localization and mapping (VSLAM) using a single camera as the sole sensor. A VSLAM system estimates its position and orientation (pose) by tracking distinct landmarks in the environment using its camera. Most approaches detect feature points in the environment, using an interest point operator that looks for small textured image templa...

Tracking and Shape Control of a Micro-cantilever using Electrostatic Actuation

In this paper the problems of state estimation, tracking control and shape control in a micro-cantilever beam with nonlinear electrostatic actuation are investigated. The system’s partial differential equation of motion is converted into a set of ordinary differential equations by projection method. Observabillity of the system is proven and a state estimation system is designed using extended ...

Can Wavelet Denoising Improve Motor Unit Potential Template Estimation?

Background: Electromyographic (EMG) signals obtained from a contracted muscle contain valuable information on its activity and health status. Much of this information lies in motor unit potentials (MUPs) of its motor units (MUs), collected during the muscle contraction. Hence, accurate estimation of a MUP template for each MU is crucial. Objective: To investigate the possibility of improv...

An Improved Augmented Reality Registration Method Based on Visual SLAM

Markerless Augmented Reality registration using standard Homography matrix is instable and has low registration accuracy. In this paper, we present a new method to improve the augmented reality registration method based on the Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (VSLAM). We improved the method implemented in ORBSLAM in order to increase stability and accuracy of AR registration. VSLAM ...

A Novel Sampling Approach in GNSS-RO Receivers with Open Loop Tracking Method

Propagation of radio occultation (RO) signals through the lower troposphere results in high phase acceleration and low signal to noise ratio signal. The excess Doppler estimation accuracy in lower troposphere is very important in receiving RO signals which can be estimated by sliding window spectral analysis. To do this, various frequency estimation methods such as MUSIC and ESPRIT can be adopt...
