We propose a marker-less model-based camera tracking approach, which makes use of GPU-assisted analysis-by-synthesis methods on a very wide field of view (e.g. fish-eye) camera. ...
: This article addresses the problem of estimating the motion of a camera as it observes the outline (or apparent contour) of a solid bounded by a smooth surface in successive imag...

We present a new motion estimation framework and apply it to omni-directional imagery. Our method estimates motions incrementally using an Implicit Extended Kalman Filter (IEKF). ...
In this paper, we present an approach of calculating visual odometry for outdoor robots equipped with a stereo rig. Instead of the typical feature matching or tracking, we use an ...
This paper presents geometric invariants of points and their applications under central catadioptric camera model. Although the image has severe distortions under the model, we es...
