This survey is mainly motivated by the increased availability and use of panoramic image
acquisition devices, in computer vision and various of its applications. Different technologies …

In this paper, we propose a Charuco board-based omnidirectional camera calibration
method to solve the problem of conventional methods requiring overly complicated …

Underwater cameras are typically placed behind glass windows to protect them from the
water. Spherical glass, a dome port, is well suited for high water pressures at great depth …

This paper proposes a unified theory for calibrating a wide variety of camera models such as
pinhole, fisheye, cata-dioptric, and multi-camera networks. We model any camera as a set of …

Disclosed is a concept for computer-assisted procedures of surgery and diagnosis that
target rigid, non-deformable anatomical parts such as bone, tissue, or teeth. The disclo sure …

Images taken from scenes under water suffer distortion due to refraction. While refraction
causes magnification with mild distortion on the observed images, severe distortions in …

In this paper, we present a complete refractive Structure-from-Motion (RSfM) framework for
underwater 3D reconstruction using refractive camera setups (for both, flat-and dome-port …

Catadioptric imaging systems are commonly used for wide-angle imaging, but lead to
multiperspective images which do not allow algorithms designed for perspective cameras to …

The present invention relates to a high precision method, model and apparatus for
calibrating, determining the rota tion of the lens scope around its symmetry axis, updating …

In an underwater imaging system, a refractive interface is introduced when a camera looks
into the water-based environment, resulting in distorted images due to the refraction of light …
