A hemispherical imaging camera
Most of the existing panoramic cameras have cylindrical field of view (FOV) which has a 360 width in azimuth, but a limited height in elevation. However, a hemispherical (or near spherical) FOV is highly desirable in many applications such as robot navigation and surveillance. This paper presents a planarmirror-based panoramic camera (HEM) which is capable of acquiring nearly hemispherical FOV ...
متن کاملHemispherical Confocal Imaging
We propose a new imaging method called hemispherical confocal imaging to visualize clearly a particular depth in a 3-D scene. The key optical component is a turtleback reflector which is a specially designed polyhedral mirror. To synthesize a hemispherical aperture, we combined the turtleback reflector with a coaxial camera and projector, to create on a hemisphere many virtual cameras and proje...
متن کاملEgomotion Estimation with a Biologically-Inspired Hemispherical Camera
Biological inspiration has produced some successful solutions for estimation of self motion from visual information. This paper describes the advantages of egomotion estimation on a spherical image plane with respect to translational and rotational motion decoupling. The paper presents a novel 6 DoF egomotion estimation method for spherical cameras based on the image interpolation algorithm. Th...
متن کاملHemispherical Confocal Imaging Using Turtleback Reflector
We propose a new imaging method called hemispherical confocal imaging to clearly visualize a particular depth in a 3-D scene. The key optical component is a turtleback reflector which is a specially designed polyhedral mirror. By combining the turtleback reflector with a coaxial pair of a camera and a projector, many virtual cameras and projectors are produced on a hemisphere with uniform densi...
متن کاملA Nonfrontal Imaging Camera
This talk will describe a new approach to visual imaging called nonfrontal imaging. This has lead to the design of a new type of camera which has three salient characteristics: I t can provide panoramic images of upto 360 degree views of a scene. Each object is in complete focus regardless of its location. The camera also delivers the coordinates of each focusable, visible scene point, in addit...
