— We present an approach to the problem of 3D map building in urban settings for service robots, using threedimensional laser range scans as the main data input. Our system is ba...

— We propose a vision-based inertial system that overcomes the problems associated with slow update rates in navigation systems based on high-resolution cameras. Due to bandwidth...
Creating freeform surfaces is a challenging task even with advanced geometric modeling systems. Laser range scanners offer a promising alternative for model acquisition--the 3D sc...
Multi-view stereo (MVS) algorithms now produce reconstructions
that rival laser range scanner accuracy. However,
stereo algorithms require textured surfaces, and therefore
work ...

In this paper, we wish to build a high quality database of
images depicting scenes, along with their real-world threedimensional
(3D) coordinates. Such a database is useful
for ...
