We propose a complete still image based 2D-3D mobile conversion system for touch screen use. The system consists of interactive segmentation followed by 3D rendering. The interactive segmentation is conducted dynamically by color Gaussian mixture model updates and dynamic-iterative graph-cut. A coloring gesture is used to guide the way and entertain the user during the process. Output of the image segmentation is then fed to the 3D rendering stage of the system. For rendering stage, two novel improvements are proposed to handle holes resulting from depth image based rendering process. These improvements are also expected to enhance the 3D perception. These two methods are subjectively tested and their results are presented.

An Efficient graph-theoretical approach for interactive mobile image and video segmentation
Şener, Ozan; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
Over the past few years, processing of visual information by mobile devices getting more affordable due to the advances in mobile technologies. Efficient and accurate segmentation of objects from an image or video leads many interesting multimedia applications. In this study, we address interactive image and video segmentation on mobile devices. We first propose a novel interaction methodology leading better satisfaction based on subjective user evaluation. Due to small screens of the mobile devices, error ...
Development of a visual object localization module for mobile robots
Şahin, Erol (1999-01-01)
Reports preliminary results from the design and implementation of a visual object localization module for mobile robots. The module takes an object-based approach to visual processing and relies on a preprocessing step that segments objects from the image. By tracking the size and the eccentricity of the objects in the image while the robot is moving, the visual object localization module can determine the position of objects relative to the robot using the displacement obtained from its odometry. In locali...
GPS/INS enhancement for land navigation using neural network
Kaygisiz, BH (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2004-05-01)
We propose in this paper a method to enhance the performance of a coupled global positioning/inertial navigation system (GPS/INS) for land navigation applications during GPS signal loss. Our method is based on the use of an artificial neural network (ANN) to intelligently aid the GPS/INS Coupled navigation system in the absence of GPS signals. The proposed enhanced GPS/INS is tested in the dynamic environment of a land vehicle navigating around a closed path on the METU campus and we provide the results. Ou...
Use of mobile phones in language learning: Developing effective instructional materials
SARAN, Murat; Çağıltay, Kürşat; Seferoglu, GÖLGE (2008-03-26)
With its widespread use and its features and functions such as mobility, reachability, localization, and personalization, mobile phone technology offers a great potential in learning environments. With this consideration, our first and foremost aim in this study has been to make use of this profound interest and potential, and contribute to the efforts to enhance existing educational practices, particularly in the developing regions of the world. Therefore, we developed instructional materials to be deliver...
Efficient inertially aided visual odometry towards mobile augmented reality
Aksoy, Yağız; Alatan, Abdullah Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2013)
With the increase in the number and computational power of commercial mobile devices like smart phones and tablet computers, augmented reality applications are gaining more and more volume. In order to augment virtual objects effectively in real scenes, pose of the camera should be estimated with high precision and speed. Today, most of the mobile devices feature cameras and inertial measurement units which carry information on change in position and attitude of the camera. In this thesis, utilization of in...
