  • 645AFD Instruction Manual Companion for Digital Photography
    Mamiya 645 AFD Instruction Manual Companion for Digital Photography Mamiya 645 AFD Instruction Manual Companion for Digital Photography Congratulations on your purchase of the Mamiya 645AFD. To make the transition from film to digital easier, we are including this digital companion that explains all of the new indicators you will see on the LCDs of your Mamiya 645AFD. Please read the owner’s manual before reading this companion. Because the Mamiya 645AFD was made to communicate with digital camera backs, these indicators will inform you of the status of the communications between your Mamiya 645AFD and digital camera back. If you do not have a digital back, these indicators will not appear and you do not have to read any further. There are three basic modes that your Mamiya 645 AFD goes through when taking a digital image. First is the Normal or pre-capture mode. The camera is in this mode before the shutter is released. While in this mode the camera virtually acts as if there were a film magazine attached. Shutter speeds and apertures are displayed on the internal and external LCD displays. The second mode is after the shutter release button has been pressed. This is the Capture mode. At this time the Mamiya 645 AFD will start to act very differently when a digital back is attached. There is a whole new set of indicators that will be displayed on the LCD displays of the camera. The After Capture mode is the third and final mode. Again, in this mode there are new indicators that will appear on the camera’s LCD displays.

The outdoor navigation technology of GNSS by itself does not offer good solutions due to presence of multipath and low SNR in indoor environments. Complimentary sensors like IMU, magnetometers, cameras, etc., have their own set of problems. A camera however, provides a wealth of information for position estimation. The main aim of this thesis is to analyse camera based navigation systems using stationary figures of opportunity.

  • Programmable Image-Based Light Capture for Previsualization
    ii Abstract Previsualization is a class of techniques for creating approximate previews of a movie sequence in order to visualize a scene prior to shooting it on the set. Often these techniques are used to convey the artistic direction of the story in terms of cinematic elements, such as camera movement, angle, lighting, dialogue, and char- acter motion. Essentially, a movie director uses previsualization (previs) to convey movie visuals as he sees them in his ”minds-eye”. Traditional methods for previs include hand-drawn sketches, Storyboards, scaled models, and photographs, which are created by artists to convey how a scene or character might look or move. A recent trend has been to use 3D graphics applications such as video game engines to perform previs, which is called 3D previs. This type of previs is generally used prior to shooting a scene in order to choreograph camera or character movements. To visualize a scene while being recorded on-set, directors and cinematographers use a technique called On-set previs, which provides a real-time view with little to no processing. Other types of previs, such as Technical previs, emphasize accurately capturing scene properties but lack any interactive manipulation and are usually employed by visual effects crews and not for cinematographers or directors. This dissertation’s focus is on creating a new method for interactive visualization that will automatically capture the on-set lighting and provide interactive manipulation of cinematic elements to facilitate the movie maker’s artistic expression, validate cine- matic choices, and provide guidance to production crews. Our method will overcome the drawbacks of the all previous previs methods by combining photorealistic ren- dering with accurately captured scene details, which is interactively displayed on a mobile capture and rendering platform.

  • Direct Digitisation of Decorated Architectural Surfaces
    DIRECT DIGITISATION OF DECORATED ARCHITECTURAL SURFACES Keith Findlater, Lindsay MacDonald, Alfredo Giani - University of Derby, Kingsway House East, Kingsway, Derby, UK Barbara Schick - Bayerisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege, Munich, Germany Nick Beckett - Metric Survey Team, English Heritage, York, UK ICHIM 03 – Tools and Methods for digitization / Outils et méthodes pour la numérisation Abstract The European project IST-2000-28008 ‘Veridical Imaging of Transmissive and Reflective Artefacts’ (VITRA) commenced in March 2002. It aims to facilitate the capture of high-resolution digital images of decorated surfaces in historical buildings. The principal objective is to design and develop a robotic carrier for a digital camera for remote acquisition of colorimetric images. Image processing algorithms are being developed for registration and correction of multiple adjacent images, channelling the stitched results to an image database for storage/retrieval adapted to the needs of users. Techniques will be explored for the interactive three-dimensional visualisation of the decorative images in augmented-reality settings. The consortium includes two user organisations, English Heritage (UK) and the Bayerisches Landesamt für Denkmalpflege (Germany), who are both extensively involved to establish imaging requirements for decorative surfaces in heritage building, and to demonstrate system operation at several sites of historical importance in the two countries. In the UK, St. Mary’s Church at Studley Royal, a Victorian church near Fountains Abbey in North Yorkshire and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been chosen for its wide variety of media (exquisite stained glass, wall paintings and encaustic tile pavement), while at Peterborough Cathedral the painted nave ceiling will be surveyed and recorded. In Bavaria, Walhalla (“home of the Gods”) has been chosen for conservation of its unique coffered metal ceiling, while Regensburg Cathedral has been selected for analysis of weathering damage to its exterior stonework and its famous stained glass windows.
