Under normal viewing conditions we are little conscious of blur in moving objects, despite the persistence of vision. Moving objects look more blurred in brief than in long exposures, suggesting an active mechanism for suppressing motion blur. To see whether blur suppression would improve visual discrimination of objects, we measured blur discrimination thresholds for moving Gaussian-blurred ed...

The idea of compound vision sensors is to create electronic devices and methods which could exceed the capability of existing vision sensor technologies. Previous research shows that motion hyperacuity, or better motion detection capability, of common house fly (Musca domestica) allows designing of better compound vision sensors for edge detection and near instantaneous object tracking. The rea...

This paper describes methods pertaining to the vision-guided robotic control of fabric motion for performing simulated joining operations for apparel manufacturing. The determination of robot motion paths is based on visual information defining the position of the fabric edges in world coordinates. The usefulness of the shape analysis and motion control algorithms is demonstrated via experiment...

Gesture and motion recognition are needed for a variety of applications. The use of human hand motions as a natural interface tool has motivated researchers to conduct research in the modeling, analysis and recognition of various hand movements. In particular, human-computer intelligent interaction has been a focus of research in vision-based gesture recognition. In this work, we introduce a 3-...

Deriving accurate 3-D motion information of a scene is an essential and important task in computer vision, and is also one of the most difficult problems. In this paper, using photogrammetry method and computer vision technique the author investigates the determination of 3-D motion parameters from binocular stereo image sequences method and steps. Discussing the in-situ calibration for binocul...
