Comparison of 2D and 3D displays and sensor fusion for threat detection, surveillance, and telepresence
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visible, infrared (IR) and sensor-fused imagery of scenes that contain occluded camouflaged threats are compared on a two dimensional (2D) display and a three dimensional (3D) display. A 3D display is compared alongside a 2D monitor for hit and miss differences in the probability of detection of objects. Response times are also measured. Image fusion is achieved using a Gaussian Laplacian pyramidal approach with wavelets for edge enhancement. Detecting potential threats that are camouflaged or difficult to see is important not only for military acquisition problems but, also for crowd surveillance as well as tactical use such as on border patrols. Imaging and display technologies that take advantage of 3D and sensor fusion will be discussed.

A Framework for Multiple Radar and Multiple 2D/3D Camera Fusion
In this paper we present a framework for the fusion of radar and image information. In the case considered here we combine information from multiple closerange radars to one fused radar measurement using the overlap region of the individual radars. This step is performed automatically using a feature based matching technique. Additionally, we use multiple 2D/3D cameras that generate (color) ima...
متن کاملHaptic Telepresence System for Individuals with Visual Impairments
In this paper, we propose a new haptic telepresence system for individuals with visual impairments (VIs) using a red-green-blue-depth (RGB-D) sensor and a haptic device. Recent improvements in RGB-D sensors have enabled real-time access to 3D spatial information. However, the real-time representation of the tangible haptic experience has not been sufficiently challenged. Thus, the proposed syst...
متن کاملThe Comparison 2D and 3D Treatment Planning in Breast Cancer Radiotherapy with Emphasis on Dose Homogeneity and Lung Dose
Introduction: Breast conserving radiotherapy is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiation oncology department. A tangential parallel-opposed pair is usually used for this purpose. This technique is performed using 2D or 3D treatment planning systems. The aim of this study was to compare 2D treatment planning with 3D treatment planning in tangential irradiation in breast conse...

Over the past decades, urban growth has been known as a worldwide phenomenon that includes widening process and expanding pattern. While the cities are changing rapidly, their quantitative analysis as well as decision making in urban planning can benefit from two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) digital models. The recent developments in imaging and non-imaging sensor technologies, s...
متن کاملExternal radiotherapy of intact breast: A comparison between 2D (single CT- slice) and 3D (full CT-slices) plans
Background: Tangential irradiation of intact breast is one of the most common procedures performed in any radiotherapy center. This method is performed by using 2D and 3D treatment planning. The aim of this study was to compare 2D with 3D plans in breast conserving radiotherapy. Homogeneity of isodose, and lung received dose were compared. Materials and Methods: Twenty patients with br...
