چکیده

Fixation is defined as holding the gaze direction towards the ized that the key for a computationally simple solution is same environmental point through time. It was proven in the in the selection of the appropriate representation for the past that fixation reduces the number of unknowns in passive dynamic imagery. Furthermore, active vision involves the visual navigation from five to four. In this paper, we show control of the degrees of freedom of image acquisition. In that fixation further simplifies 3D motion estimation because it motion related tasks this could mean the pursuing of a decouples the motion parameter space. We project the spherical moving object, the fixation on a stationary point, or even motion field in two latitudinal directions with respect to two keeping the gaze aligned with the heading direction. different poles of the image sphere. The first projection enables In this study, we are interested in the computational the computation of the longitude of the translation direction advantages of fixation on an environmental point. There and the torsion. The second projection gives the angle between

Estimating Rigid 3D Motion by Stereo Fixation of Vertices

In this paper 3D motion estimation using an active stereo vision paradigm is addressed. The objective is to measure camera rotations of a stereo head to estimate the 3D motion of a single moving object in a scene. The method uses stereo camera fixation of junctions. The vertex of a junction is selected as the fixation point. Vertex position and junction orientations are recovered in the fixated...

Visual Fixation for 3D Video Stabilization

Visual fixation is employed by humans and some animals to keep a specific 3D location at the center of the visual gaze. Inspired by this phenomenon in nature, this paper explores the idea to transfer this mechanism to the context of video stabilization for a handheld video camera. A novel approach is presented that stabilizes a video by fixating on automatically extracted 3D target points. This...

Robot Motion Vision Part II: Implementation

The idea of Fixation introduced a direct method for general recovery of shape and motion from images without using either feature correspondence or optical flow [1,2]. There are some parameters which have important effects on the performance of fixation method. However, the theory of fixation does not say anything about the autonomous and correct choice of those parameters. This paper presents ...

Robot Motion Vision Pait I: Theory

A direct method called fixation is introduced for solving the general motion vision problem, arbitrary motion relative to an arbitrary environment. This method results in a linear constraint equation which explicitly expresses the rotational velocity in terms of the translational velocity. The combination of this constraint equation with the Brightness-Change Constraint Equation solves the gene...

Dynamic Fixation of a Moving Surface Using Log Polar Sampling

We describe the development and testing of a first-order motion estimation algorithm which maintains accurate fixation of features on surfaces undergoing three-dimensional motion, and determines the local affine motion parallax. The accuracy of the first-order flow estimation is much improved by the use of log-polar sampling. We investigate the contribution of fixation to this accuracy using sy...
