چکیده
This diploma thesis investigates the implementation of a low cost marker based infrared optical tracking system using commodity hardware. The focus is on software/algorithms. An introduction to marker based optical tracking is given, the theoretical foundations of the single componetns of such a system are covered and a software framework and single components are implemented and evaluated. Critical issues of implementation are highlighted and discussed.

An Approach to Improve Accuracy of Optical Tracking Systems in Cranial Radiation Therapy
This work presents a new method for the accurate estimation of soft tissue thickness based on near infrared (NIR) laser measurements. By using this estimation, our goal is to develop an improved non-invasive marker-less optical tracking system for cranial radiation therapy. Results are presented for three subjects and reveal an RMS error of less than 0.34 mm.
متن کاملGenerating optimized marker-based rigid bodies for optical tracking systems
Marker-based optical tracking systems are often used to track objects that are equipped with a certain number of passive or active point markers. Fixed configurations of these markers, so-called rigid bodies, can be detected by, for example, infrared stereo-based camera systems, and their position and orientation can be reconstructed by corresponding tracking algorithms. The main issue in desig...
متن کاملA Ground-Based Near Infrared Camera Array System for UAV Auto-Landing in GPS-Denied Environment
This paper proposes a novel infrared camera array guidance system with capability to track and provide real time position and speed of a fixed-wing Unmanned air vehicle (UAV) during a landing process. The system mainly include three novel parts: (1) Infrared camera array and near infrared laser lamp based cooperative long range optical imaging module; (2) Large scale outdoor camera array calibr...
متن کاملA Biocompatible Near-Infrared 3D Tracking System*
A fundamental challenge in soft-tissue surgery is that target tissue moves and deforms, becomes occluded by blood or other tissue, and is difficult to differentiate from surrounding tissue. We developed small biocompatible near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) markers with a novel fused plenoptic and NIR camera tracking system, enabling three-dimensional tracking of tools and target tissue while ove...
متن کاملStudy on Spherical Probes design
A study on the design of spherical probes has been done. The concept of spherical is first presented and its advantages are explained. An analysis of the possibility to optimize a probe given some constraint has been shown to be possible only for discrete numbers of markers. A simulation tool designed for a specific tracking system is implemented. Its use allows the assessment of a specific pro...
