Visual marker systems have become an ubiquitous tool to supply a reference frame onto
otherwise uncontrolled scenes. Throughout the last decades, a wide range of different …

To accurately navigate surgical instruments around in vivo environments in minimally
invasive surgeries through flexible endoscopes or rigid scopes, real-time tracking of surgical …

Accurate object tracking is an important task in applications such as augmented/virtual
reality and tracking of surgical instruments. This paper presents a novel approach for object …

Visual markers are useful tools that aid autonomous robots in object recognition and pose
measurement; however, conventional markers have two fundamental problems in …

Visual markers are useful tools that support object recognition and pose measurements by
autonomous robots; however, conventional markers have relatively low levels of accuracy in …

This paper presents a novel dynamic camera parameter control method for the position and
posture estimation of highly miniaturized AR markers (micro AR markers) using a low-cost …

Tensegrity paradigm can allow creation of lightweight, robust, efficient and configurable
robots. Modeling, design, control and sensing of tensegrity robots are challenging. Effective …

This work presents a novel vision-based navigation strategy for autonomous humanoid
robots using augmented reality (AR). In the first stage, a platform is developed for indoor and …

In this paper, we present a vision-based localization system using mobile augmented reality
(MAR) and mobile audio augmented reality (MAAR) techniques, applicable to both humans …

We present a new analytical method for solving the problem of relative camera pose
estimation. This method first calculates the homography matrix between two calibrated views …
