We propose a framework for automatic modeling, detection, and tracking of 3D objects with
a Kinect. The detection part is mainly based on the recent template-based LINEMOD …

We present a method which enables rapid and dense reconstruction of scenes browsed by
a single live camera. We take point-based real-time structure from motion (SFM) as our …

Recognizing and manipulating objects is an important task for mobile robots performing
useful services in everyday environments. While existing techniques for object recognition …

In recent years, space debris has become a threat for satellites operating in low Earth orbit.
Even by applying mitigation guidelines, their number will still increase over the course of the …

This paper presents a system for 3D reconstruction of large-scale outdoor scenes based on
monocular motion stereo. Ours is the first such system to run at interactive frame rates on a …

Automatic reconstruction of 3D models from images using multi-view Structure-from-Motion
methods has been one of the most fruitful outcomes of computer vision. These advances …

This paper presents an approach for reconstructing large-scale outdoor scenes through
monocular motion stereo at interactive frame rates on a modern mobile device (Google …

Visual-Inertial Odometry (VIO) algorithms typically rely on a point cloud representation of the
scene that does not model the topology of the environment. A 3D mesh instead offers a …

In robotics, especially in this era of autonomous driving, map** is one key ability of a robot
to be able to navigate through an environment, localize on it, and analyze its traversability …

We present a real-time interactive 3D scanning system that allows users to scan complete
object geometry by turning the object around in front of a real-time 3D range scanner. The …
