CNS 186 Final Report Stereo Vision Tracking System Using Webcams
نویسنده
چکیده
In this project, a stereo vision tracking system using webcams is constructed. This system records stereo videos of moving labeled targets and extracts the 3D trajectories of these targets from the recorded videos. It consists of three major steps – stereo video capturing, post processing, and 3D trajectory construction of labeled targets. The final goal of this stereo system is to record human stick balancing experiments and extract the stick trajectories in 3D space. In this report, both the hardware and software implementations of this stereo video capturing system are described, and the system’s performance is characterized.

Video-Based Tracking of Laparoscopic Instruments Using an Orthogonal Webcams System
This paper presents a system for tracking the movement of laparoscopic instruments which is based on an orthogonal system of webcams and video image processing. The movements are captured with two webcams placed orthogonally inside of the physical trainer. On the image, the instruments were detected by using color markers placed on the distal tip of each instrument. The 3D position of the tip o...
متن کاملHand Tracking and Hand Gesture Recognition for Human Computer Interaction
Hand tracking and hand gesture recognition is an important problem in the field of human-computer interaction. A number of solutions have been proposed in the current literature, but the problem is still far from being solved since the hand exhibits significant amounts of articulation and self-occlusion that cause difficulties with existing algorithms. To further exasperate these problems, inte...
متن کاملMonocular Stereo Measurement Using High-Speed Catadioptric Tracking
This paper presents a novel concept of real-time catadioptric stereo tracking using a single ultrafast mirror-drive pan-tilt active vision system that can simultaneously switch between hundreds of different views in a second. By accelerating video-shooting, computation, and actuation at the millisecond-granularity level for time-division multithreaded processing in ultrafast gaze control, the a...
متن کاملAn Interaction Device using Computer Vision Techniques
This paper presents a six degrees of freedom (6 DoF) optical tracking device for interaction in desktop VR applications. The device uses three webcams mounted on a box and uses computer vision techniques to detect the movements of white markers over a black background. We present the process of movements’ detection and how this information is adapted to be applied in interaction events and to s...
