Enhancing Camera Operator Performance with Computer Vision Based Control
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cameras are often mounted on platforms that can move like rovers, booms, gantries and aircraft. People operate such platforms to capture desired views of scene or target. To avoid collisions with the environment and occlusions, such platforms often possess redundant degrees-of-freedom. As a result, manipulating such platforms demands much skill. Visual-servoing some degreesof-freedom may reduce operator burden and improve tracking performance. This concept, which we call human-in-the-loop visualservoing, is demonstrated in this paper and applies a filter and feedforward controller to a broadcast camera boom. Keywords—Computer vision, visual-servoing, man-machine systems, human-in-the-loop control

Modelling of Eyeball with Pan/Tilt Mechanism and Intelligent Face Recognition Using Local Binary Pattern Operator
This paper describes the vision system for a humanoid robot, which includes the mechanism that controls eyeball orientation and blinking process. Along with the mechanism designed, the orientation of the camera, integrated with controlling servomotors. This vision system is a bio-mimic, which is designed to match the size of human eye. This prototype runs face recognition and identifies, match...
متن کاملEnhancing Operator Performance of Remote Container Landing: an Assessment of a 3d Stereoscopic Control & Display System
A freight company in Singapore has developed and implemented the world’s first semi-automated camera-based remote control crane system to pick-up and land freight containers. A centralised computer commands the crane to move a container between locations, while the operator performs the skilled task of vertically landing/picking up the container. However, the 2 dimensional (2D) camerabased syst...
متن کاملCamera Pose Estimation in Unknown Environments using a Sequence of Wide-Baseline Monocular Images
In this paper, a feature-based technique for the camera pose estimation in a sequence of wide-baseline images has been proposed. Camera pose estimation is an important issue in many computer vision and robotics applications, such as, augmented reality and visual SLAM. The proposed method can track captured images taken by hand-held camera in room-sized workspaces with maximum scene depth of 3-4...
متن کاملA Fast, Robust, Automatic Blink Detector
Introduction “Blink” is defined as closing and opening of the eyes in a small duration of time. In this study, we aimed to introduce a fast, robust, vision-based approach for blink detection. Materials and Methods This approach consists of two steps. In the first step, the subject’s face is localized every second and with the first blink, the system detects the eye’s location and creates an ope...
متن کاملCamera Arrangement in Visual 3D Systems using Iso-disparity Model to Enhance Depth Estimation Accuracy
In this paper we address the problem of automatic arrangement of cameras in a 3D system to enhance the performance of depth acquisition procedure. Lacking ground truth or a priori information, a measure of uncertainty is required to assess the quality of reconstruction. The mathematical model of iso-disparity surfaces provides an efficient way to estimate the depth estimation uncertainty which ...
