UAV precision landing on moving boat by Zhu, Yanbiao

“…Thus, in this project, a solution is to attach a servo motor-based Stewart platform to the bottom of the UAV as landing gear and to detect the platform's orientation using a stereo camera and an onboard PC running ROS. The suggested landing algorithm makes use of a variety of control approaches, including a rotation matrix and a posture restriction, to assure the UAV's stability and landing accuracy. …”

Modeling and copying human head movements by Heuring, J, Murray, D

“…The pose is copied onto a slave electromechanical stereo camera platform alone, providing two rotational degrees of freedom, or onto the same head carried by a robot arm to give complete six degree-of-freedom mapping of the operator's movements. …”

Choosing Where To Go: Complete 3D Exploration With Stereo by Shade, R, Newman, P, IEEE

“…This paper is about the autonomous acquisiti of detailed 3D maps of a-priori unknown environments using stereo camera - it is about choosing where to go. Our approa hinges upon a boundary value constrained partial differenti equation (PDE) - the solution of which provides a scalar fie guaranteed to have no local minima. …”

Transfer of fixation using affine structure: Extending the analysis to stereo by Fairley, S, Reid, I, Murray, D

“…This paper describes an algorithm for maintaining fixation upon a 3D body-centred point using 3D affine transfer, extending an earlier monocular method to stereo cameras. Transfer is based on corners detected in the image and matched over time and in stereo. …”

Incremental dense multi-modal 3D scene reconstruction by Miksik, O, Amar, Y, Vineet, V, Pérez, P, Torr, PHS

“…Often, we use a combination of a stereo camera and lidar, however, process the acquired data in independent pipelines which generally leads to sub-optimal performance since both sensors suffer from different drawbacks. …”

High-resolution topography of Gusev crater using CTX data (Mars). by Ronny Steveen Anangonó Tutasig, Francisco Javier De Cos Juez, Susana Fernández Menéndez

Towards Real-Time 3D Terrain Reconstruction from Aerial Imagery by Qiaosong Wang

“…We found that the neighboring two video frames taken by UAVs flying at a mid-to-high cruising altitude can be approximated as left and right views from a virtual stereo camera. By leveraging GPU-accelerated real-time stereo estimation, efficient PnP correspondence solving algorithms, and an extended Kalman filter, our system simultaneously predicts scene geometry and camera position/orientation from the virtual stereo cameras. …”
