Visual Multitask Real-Time Model in an Automatic Driving Scene

Real time automatic scene classification

This work has been done as part of the EU VICAR (IST) project and the EU SCOFI project (IAP). The aim of the first project was to develop a real time video indexing classification annotation and retrieval system. For our systems, we have adapted the approach of Picard and Minka [3], who categorized elements of a scene automatically with so-called ’stuff’ categories (e.g., grass, sky, sand, ston...

A real-time recursive dynamic model for vehicle driving simulators

This paper presents the Real-Time Recursive Dynamics (RTRD) model that is developed for driving simulators. The model could be implemented in the Driving Simulator. The RTRD can also be used for off-line high-speed dynamics analysis, compared with commercial multibody dynamics codes, to speed up mechanical design process. An overview of RTRD is presented in the paper. Basic models for specific ...

An Automatic Real Time Impedance Matching System for Use in an RF Electrostatics Accelerator Ion Source

Consistent Media Model for Real-Time Scene Rendering

We present a consistent model for artistic media reproduction in 3D scene renderings and animations. Artistic media reproduction can be defined as a media model (such as brush, pencil, ink) and a support (such as canvas and papers). We create a surface grain according to the object geometry and apply it as additional material properties. Furthermore, we propose to use the abstraction of obtaine...

Real-Time Model-Based Visual Tracking

This paper describes a robust approach to real-time model-based visual tracking and servoing for rigid polyhedral objects moving with 3 degrees of freedom. It is recognized that low-level feature segmentation is not infallible. Uncertainty measures enter into all computations to account for varying degrees of confidence in the measured object features. Robust tracking and servoing has been demo...
