Tracking Object Trajectories Relative to Planar Surfaces Using Stereo
نویسندگان
چکیده
This project proposes a methodology for 3D tracking of objects in relation to a planar surface, with trajectory accuracy enhanced using applied statistical analysis. Planar surface extraction, with camera position and orientation invariance, is achieved by finding limiting regions established by graph-based segmentation and mapping the resulting segments to disparity data from a stereo camera. Secondly, object detection and tracking is performed using a combination of adaptive background subtraction and least squares linear regression for calculating object trajectories. The accuracy of bounding planar surface extraction is shown to be accurate to within 1.4% and tracking has shown similar high correlations between the calculated and actual positions.

Most existing stereo algorithms build up geometric descriptions from absolute position information about points. We emphas...
متن کاملPlanar Surface Tracking Using Direct Stereo
We present a new method for tracking planar surfaces based on the direct update of surface parameters from two stereo images. The plane tracking algorithm is posed as an optimization problem and maintains an iteratively re-weighted least squares guess of the plane’s orientation using direct pixelmeasurements. The algorithm is discussed and analyzed, and an application to augmented reality is pr...
متن کاملMultiple View Object Cosegmentation Using Appearance and Stereo Cues
We present an automatic approach to segment an object in calibrated images acquired from multiple viewpoints. Our system starts with a new piecewise planar layer-based stereo algorithm that estimates a dense depth map that consists of a set of 3D planar surfaces. The algorithm is formulated using an energy minimization framework that combines stereo and appearance cues, where for each surface, ...

Robots in the near future will be expected to operate autonomously in unstructured environments. In order to reach a required level of autonomy, a highly developed environment perception is necessary. Most mobile robots today are constructed to move in an indoor environment on a flat horizontal surface called herein the . Furthermore, other dominant surfaces in indoor environments, such as wall...
متن کاملMethods to track single-molecule trajectories.
Methods are discussed to track single molecules in planar-supported phospholipid bilayers. Mainly, these methods constitute optimizations for a low signal-to-noise ratio and for the dim optical characteristics of single molecules. Algorithmic modifications to compensate and correct for misidentifications and misassignments are also described. One key advance, which exchanges the typically fragm...
