This state of the art report covers reconstruction methods for transparent and specular
objects or phenomena. While the 3D acquisition of opaque surfaces with Lambertian …

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 …

The cornea of the human eye acts as a mirror that reflects light from a person's environment.
These corneal reflections can be extracted from an image of the eye by modeling the eye …

While the study of geometry has mainly concentrated on single viewpoint (SVP) cameras,
there is growing attention to more general non-SVP systems. Here, we study an important …

We present a new endoscopic 3D scanning system based on Single Shot Structured Light.
The proposed design makes it possible to build an extremely small scanner. The sensor …

Conventional vision systems and algorithms assume the camera to have a single viewpoint.
However, sensors need not always maintain a single viewpoint. For instance, an incorrectly …

Dexterous manipulation of intraocular microrobotic devices has the potential to significantly
augment ophthalmic surgeons' capabilities. Microrobots can be employed for targeted drug …

We present a technique for modeling non-central catadioptric cameras consisting of a
perspective camera and a rotationally symmetric conic reflector. While previous approaches …

This paper presents a panoramic stereo imaging system which uses a single camera
coaxially combined with a fisheye lens and a convex mirror. It provides the design …

Catadioptric cameras are widely used to increase the field of view using mirrors. Central
catadioptric systems having an effective single viewpoint are easy to model and use, but …
