Markus Rupp 2 So far we did only this… This is an eye-pad not an IPad Binocular vision • Binocular vision is vision in which both eyes are used together. The word binocular comes from two Latin roots, bini for double, and oculus for eye.[1] Having two eyes confers at least four advantages over having one. First, it gives a creature a spare eye in case one is damaged. Second, it gives a wider field of view. For example, humans have a maximum horizontal field of view of approximately 200 degrees with two eyes, approximately 120 degrees of which makes up the binocular field of view (seen by both eyes) flanked by two uniocular fields (seen by only one eye) of approximately 40 degrees. [2] Third, it gives binocular summation in which the ability to detect faint objects is enhanced.[3] Fourth it can give stereopsis in which parallax provided by the two eyes' different positions on the head give precise depth perception.[4] Such binocular vision is usually accompanied by singleness of vision or binocular fusion, in which a single image is seen despite each eye's having its own image of any object.[4] Binocular vision • Some animals, usually prey animals, have their two eyes positioned on opposite sides of their heads to give the widest possible field of view.

  • Proximal Monitoring in Landscape Environments
    Department of Mathematics and Statistics Proximal Monitoring in Landscape Environments Shuqi Ng This dissertation is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University December 2017 DECLARATION To the best of my knowledge and belief, this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgement has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Shuqi Ng March 2017 ABSTRACT With the implementation of the initiatives in reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD), the accurate determination of the spatio-temporal variation of carbon stocks is crucial. Woody vegetation is one of the more noteworthy carbon storage pools. However, ever-changing forest inventory makes it difficult for countries to accurately measure woody biomass and by extension, predict carbon stocks. Although the most accurate mensuration of biomass is to harvest a tree, the method is destructive and obstructs the REDD initiative. Non- destructive methods use dendrometric measurements that have been obtained from non-contact, remote sensing technologies to estimate biomass derived from allometric models. The commodity stereo-camera is an alternate consideration to remote sensing technologies currently used such as terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), which requires specialized equipment and some expertise in using the equipment. Improving technologies and software has enabled the photogrammetric measurements of objects to be reasonably accurate comparative to TLS. As a more mobile and cost-effective equipment, it also addresses some of the issues in using laser technology. In photogrammetric measurement, the application of spatial scale to the model is critical for accurate distance and volume estimates (Miller (2015)).

    International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, Volume XL-1/W2, 2013 UAV-g2013, 4 – 6 September 2013, Rostock, Germany A UAV-BASED LOW-COST STEREO CAMERA SYSTEM FOR ARCHAEOLOGICAL SURVEYS - EXPERIENCES FROM DOLICHE (TURKEY) K. Haubeck a, T. Prinz b a Institute of Geography, Westfalian Wilhelms-University Münster, Germany – [email protected] b Institute for Geoinformatics, Westfalian Wilhelms-University Münster, Germany – [email protected] KEY WORDS: Archaeology, Application, DEM/DTM, Orthoimage, Close Range, UAV, Stereoscopic ABSTRACT: The use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for surveying archaeological sites is becoming more and more common due to their advantages in rapidity of data acquisition, cost-efficiency and flexibility. One possible usage is the documentation and visualization of historic geo-structures and -objects using UAV-attached digital small frame cameras. These monoscopic cameras offer the possibility to obtain close-range aerial photographs, but – under the condition that an accurate nadir-waypoint flight is not possible due to choppy or windy weather conditions – at the same time implicate the problem that two single aerial images not always meet the required overlap to use them for 3D photogrammetric purposes. In this paper, we present an attempt to replace the monoscopic camera with a calibrated low-cost stereo camera that takes two pictures from a slightly different angle at the same time. Our results show that such a geometrically predefined stereo image pair can be used for photogrammetric purposes e.g. the creation of digital terrain models (DTMs) and orthophotos or the 3D extraction of single geo-objects.

  • Using Depth Information to Aid Stereoscopic Image Forensics
    USING DEPTH INFORMATION TO AID STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE FORENSICS BY MARK-ANTHONY FOUCHÉ Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science (Computer Science) in the Faculty of Engineering, Build Environment and Information Technology UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA September 2014 © University of Pretoria SUMMARY USING DEPTH INFORMATION TO AID STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE FORENSICS by Mark-Anthony Fouché Supervisor: Prof MS Olivier Department: Computer Science University: University of Pretoria Degree: Master of Science (Computer Science) Keywords: Stereoscopic Image, Stereo 3D, Image Forensics, Splicing, Depth, Disparity Map, Forgery Detection With the advances in image manipulation software, it has become easier to manipulate digital images. These manipulations can be used to increase image quality, but can also be used to depict a scene that never occurred. One of the purposes of digital image forensics is to identify such manipulations. There is however a lack of research on the detection of manipulated stereoscopic images. Stereoscopic images are images which create an illusion of depth for the viewer by showing an image pair that correlates to a person’s left and right eye. This dissertation investigates how depth information can be used to detect stereoscopic image manipulations. Two techniques were developed and tested through experimentation. The first technique used disparity maps to highlight large areas without internal depth. These areas can be the product of non-stereoscopic to stereoscopic splicing techniques. Experimentation results showed that areas without internal depth can be detected. However, the detected areas can be the product of natural occurrences in images and not only non-stereoscopic to stereoscopic splicing. Post investigation of detected areas is thus required to verify the results.

  • INTRODUCTION I Have Early Letters Between W
    INTRODUCTION I have early letters between W. C. Darrah and Ray Bohman discussing the collecting of stereo views and their value in the early ‘70s. Personal correspondence between collectors at that time was the only way of sharing information prior to the establishment of NSA. On December 5, 1973, Richard Russack sent a questionnaire to approximately 250 stereo collectors to see if there was an interest in forming a “stereo collector’s organization.” Rick stated, “I believe that such a group could be helpful in at least two major areas. Firstly, the newsletter of the group could serve as a clearing house for information on particular views, subjects or photographers...Secondly, the group’s newsletter could also aid collectors in disposing unwanted items and also aid in adding items...Why not a “For Trade”...and certainly a “For Sale and Wanted” section...By this time you know what I have in mind.” Richard Russack.” On January 28, 1974, an invitation was issued to about 500 names of collectors interested in stereo by Richard Russack and John Waldsmith. It also defined the contents of a proposed newsletter to be called Stereo World. During the 1980’s there was a big influx of members who were taking 3-D photographs and the magazine became more balanced between the collectors and the shooters. Tex Treadwell edited the previous index (Volumes 1 through 23) and defined his guidelines for inclusion of entries. These guidelines were a basis for my work, but I decided to start over from Vol 1, Number 1, in order to give continuity to the complete work.
