چکیده

This paper addresses the problem of calibrating the 3D positions of multiple stationary point targets based on the motion analysis of a group of rigidly co-located calibrated cameras. A non-linear solution is developed using the conformal model of Euclidean 3D space. The algorithm is expressed entirely within the computational framework of geometric algebra and geometric calculus. Experiments are performed to evaluate the algorithm and the results show that it performs well and is robust in the presence of noise.

Target Calibration and Tracking Using Conformal Geometric Algebra

This paper is about real-time refinement of the 3D positions of a large number of stationary point-targets from a sequence of 2D images which are taken by a hand-held, calibrated camera group. To cope with the large data quantity arriving rapidly, an efficient iterative algorithm was developed. The problem and solution are expressed entirely within the computational framework of conformal geome...

A Visual Glove Based on Conformal Geometric Algebra

In this paper, a visual glove based on Conformal Geometric Algebra is proposed. To estimate the motion of hand in an intuitive way, Conformal Geometric Algebra is introduced in that it can describe relationship of objects in 3D Euclidean space geometrically. For measuring human hand joints angles with glove like device, the physiological structure of human hand is analyzed and an inverse kinema...

Cone of view camera model using conformal geometric algebra for classic and panoramic image sensors

Camera calibration is a necessary step in 3D computer vision in order to extract metric information from 2D images. Calibration has been defined as the non parametric association of a projection ray in 3D to every pixel in an image. It is normally neglected that pixels have a finite surface that can be approximated by a cone of view that has the usual ray of view of the pixel as a directrix axi...

On Infinitesimal Conformal Transformations of the Tangent Bundles with the Generalized Metric

Let  be an n-dimensional Riemannian manifold, and  be its tangent bundle with the lift metric. Then every infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformation  induces an infinitesimal homothetic transformation on .  Furthermore,  the correspondence   gives a homomorphism of the Lie algebra of infinitesimal fiber-preserving conformal transformations on  onto the Lie algebra of infinitesimal ...
