RGB-D Vision
Contact: Jörg Stückler
In the past year, novel camera systems like the Microsoft Kinect or the Asus Xtion sensor that provide both color and dense depth images became readily available. There are great expectations that such systems will lead to a boost of new applications in the field of 3D perception which is particularly relevant for robots operating in unstructured environments and under real-world conditions.
We are specifically interested in using RGB-D sensors for 3D mapping and localization, path planning, navigation, object recognition and people tracking.
