We propose autonomous robotic swarm exploration to search for extra-terrestrial life in the Valles Marineris canyon system on Mars. The swarm consists of unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Key technologies are robust flight and swarm control algorithms as well as infrastructure-less swarm navigation. The swarm navigation uses inertial navigation, laser scanners, cameras,...
Image-based rendering (IBR) is a promising technology for rendering photo-realistic views of scenes from a collection of densely sampled images or videos, and for developing revolutionary immersive viewing systems. However, most multiple camera systems are designed to be stationary and hence their ability to cope with moving objects and dynamic environment is somewhat limited. This paper studies the...
Image-based rendering (IBR) is an emerging technology for rendering photo-realistic views of scenes from a collection of densely sampled images or videos. It provides a framework for developing revolutionary virtual reality and immersive viewing systems. This paper studies the design of a movable image-based rendering system based on a class of dynamic representations called plenoptic videos. It is...
The negative cloud-to-ground (CG) flashes that struck the ground with multiple contacts have been analyzed based on a high-speed video camera system (1000 frames s-1) in correlation with fast and slow antenna systems. Two cases have been divided. In one case, the CG flashes struck the ground with more than one termination on a millisecond-scale. This kind of stroke, named as multiple-ground termination...
The introduction of low power general purpose processors (like the Intelreg Atomtrade processor) expands the capability of handheld and mobile Internet devices (MIDs) to include compelling visual computing applications. One rapidly emerging visual computing usage model is known as mobile augmented reality (MAR). In the MAR usage model, the user is able to point the handheld camera to an object (like...
