چکیده

An efficient technique for calibrating video cameras to record optical density (OD) from microscopic images is described. The method corrects for variation over the field of the brightfield and darkfield intensities, does not assume a linear response of the camera to the incident intensity and requires a single calibration filter.

Long Range Audio and Audio-Visual Event Detection Using a Laser Doppler Vibrometer

Association of audio events with video events presents a challenge to a typical camera-microphone approach in order to capture AV signals from a large distance. Setting up a long range microphone array and performing geo-calibration of both audio and video sensors is difficult. In this work, in addition to a geo-calibrated electro-optical camera, we propose to use a novel optical sensor a Laser...

Calibration of a Camera-Based Guidance Solution for Orthopedic and Trauma Surgery

In orthopedic and trauma surgery, fracture reduction usually requires the use of metallic plates and their fixation by means of screws. The employment of guidance solutions during surgical procedures has become of great importance during the last decades. Our guidance solution exploits a small video camera placed directly on the instrument, for example a drill, and a set of small markers placed...

Quantitative determination of phospholipids in a pharmaceutical drug by scanning and video densitometry.

This paper describes a convenient and practice method for quantitation of surfactant phospholipids (1,2-dipalmitoyl-3-sn-phosphatidyl choline [DPPC] and 1-palmitayl-2-oleyl-3-sn-phosphatidyl glycerol [POPG]) in a recombinant surfactant lyophile (Venticute) by high-performance, thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) with video densitometry. DPPC and POPG were extracted from Venticute-lyophile using m...

Continuous Zoom Calibration by Tracking Salient Points in Endoscopic Video

Many image-based systems for aiding the surgeon during minimally invasive surgery require the endoscopic camera to be calibrated at all times. This article proposes a method for accomplishing this goal whenever the camera has optical zoom and the focal length changes during the procedure. Our solution for online calibration builds on recent developments in tracking salient points using differen...

Calibration for 3D Reconstruction of Thermal Images

The calibration system presented in this article enables to calculate optical parameters i.e. intrinsic and extrinsic of both thermal and visual cameras used for 3D reconstruction of thermal images. Visual cameras are in stereoscopic set and provide a pair of stereo images of the same object which are used to perform 3D reconstruction of the examined object [8]. The thermal camera provides info...
