A new technique is presented for determining the positions where a range sensor should be located to acquire the surfaces of a complex scene. The algorithm consists of two stages....
Abstract: Technologies for measuring range data were intensively developed in recent years. The time-of-flight matrix range sensor is one of the most active range acquisition devic...
—This paper presents a new method for extracting object edges from range images obtained by a 3D range imaging sensor⎯the SwissRanger SR-3000. In range image preprocessing stag...
Segmentation of range images using superquadric entities has been pointed out by a number of researchers as a powerful approach towards object recognition. Problems exist in findi...
This paper describes a new technique for passive ranging which is of special interest in areas such as covert nap-of-the-earth helicopter flight and spacecraft landing. This techn...
