Touching the Cloud: Bimanual annotation of immersive point clouds
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present “Touching the Cloud”, a bi-manual user interface for the interaction, selection and annotation of immersive point cloud data. With minimal instrumentation, the setup allows a user in an immersive head-mounted display (HMD) environment to naturally interact with point clouds. By tracking the user’s hands using an OpenNI sensor and displaying them in the virtual environment (VE), the user can touch the virtual 3D point cloud in midair and transform it with pinch gestures inspired by smartphonebased interaction. In addition, by triggering voiceor button-pressactivated commands, the user can select, segment and annotate the immersive point cloud, thereby creating hierarchical exploded view models.

A novel method for locating the local terrestrial laser scans in a global aerial point cloud
In addition to the heterogeneity of aerial and terrestrial views, the small scale terrestrial point clouds are hardly comparable with large scale and overhead aerial point clouds. A hierarchical method is proposed for automatic locating of terrestrial scans in aerial point cloud. The proposed method begins with detecting the candidate positions for the deployment of the terrestrial laser scanne...

متن کاملTarget detection Bridge Modelling using Point Cloud Segmentation Obtained from Photogrameric UAV
In recent years, great efforts have been made to generate 3D models of urban structures in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 3D reconstruction of the bridge, as one of the most important urban structures in transportation systems, has been neglected because of its geometric and structural complexity. Due to the UAV technology development in spatial data acquisition, in this study, the point cl...
متن کاملGMM-based Spatial Change Detection from Bimanual Tracking and Point Cloud Differences
Robots that detect changes in the environment can attain better context awareness and increased autonomy. In this work, a spatial change detection approach is presented which uses a single fixed depth camera to identify environment changes caused by human activities. The proposed method combines hand tracking and the difference between organized point clouds. Bimanual movements are recorded in ...
متن کاملAudio-Tactile Annotation and Registration of 3D Point Clouds for Robotic Manipulation
The recent advent of low-cost 3D sensing technologies has greatly increased the use of 3D point cloud-based representations in robotics. Such representations have a variety of applications, including object recognition, pose estimation and grasp point selection. A major limitation of 3D point clouds, however, is that they fail to capture an object’s functional features – for example, a 3D model...
