OMNIVIEWS: Direct Omnidirectional Imaging Based on a Retina-like Sensor
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditionally the acquisition of real time panoramic images has been performed by the usage of lenses or mirrors coupled with standard image sensors, which give distorted images. In this paper we will present a system composed of a mirror and a log polar sensor, which is able to provide directly understandable images.

Panoramic Imaging with SVAVISCA Camera - Simulations and Reality
An OMNIVIEWS catadioptric camera combines a curved mirror with a variant resolution imaging sensor. The goal is to obtain panoramic images with large view angle, suitable image formation geometry, and controlled resolution variation across the field of view. We present simulations of an OMNIVIEWS camera and compare them with real images taken by a combination of a hyperbolic mirror with a log-p...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Localization of an Unknown Target Using Two Heterogeneous Sensors
Heterogeneous wireless sensor networks consist of some different types of sensor nodes deployed in a particular area. Different sensor types can measure different quantity of a source and using the combination of different measurement techniques, the minimum number of necessary sensors is reduced in localization problems. In this paper, we focus on the single source localization in a heterogene...
متن کاملCompound eye and retina-like combination sensor with a large field of view based on a space-variant curved micro lens array.
A compound eye and retina-like combination sensor based on a space-variant curved micro lens array (CMLA) is proposed to simultaneously offer the large FOV characteristic of a compound eye and retina-like feature of a single aperture eye. The mathematical models of the sensor are developed and the structure parameters of the space-variant CMLA are deduced. Modeling verification is carried out a...
متن کاملOmnidirectional Active Vision for Evolutionary Car Driving
We describe a set of simulations to evolve omnidirectional active vision, an artificial retina scanning over images taken via an omnidirectional camera, being applied to a car driving task. While the retina can immediately access features in any direction, it is asked to select behaviorally-relevant features so as to drive the car on the road. Neural controllers which direct both the retinal mo...
متن کاملOmnidirectional Vision Systems : 1998 PI Report ∗
Conventional video cameras have limited fields of view which make them restrictive in a variety of applications. Based on our previous work on omnidirectional imaging, we have developed a variety of new vision sensors, real-time algorithms for tracking and depth estimation and architectures for distributed surveillance. In this report, we briefly describe research projects that were completed d...
