Vision based obstacle detection and avoidance using low level image features
Senlet, Turgay; Halıcı, Uğur; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
This study proposes a new method for obstacle detection and avoidance using low-level MPEG-7 visual descriptors. The method includes training a neural network with a subset of MPEG-7 visual descriptors extracted from outdoor scenes. The trained neural network is then used to estimate the obstacle presence in real outdoor videos and to perform obstacle avoidance. In our proposed method, obstacle avoidance solely depends on the estimated obstacle presence data. In this study, backpropagation algorithm on mult...
Vision-based single-stroke character recognition for wearable computing
Ozer, OF; Ozun, O; Tuzel, CO; Atalay, Mehmet Volkan; Cetin, AE (2001-05-01)
Particularly when compared to traditional tools such as a keyboard or mouse, wearable computing data entry tools offer increased mobility and flexibility. Such tools include touch screens, hand gesture and facial expression recognition, speech recognition, and key systems. We describe a new approach for recognizing characters drawn by hand gestures or by a pointer on a user's forearm captured by a digital camera. We draw each character as a single, isolated stroke using a Graffiti-like alphabet. Our algorit...
Vision-based detection and distance estimation of micro unmanned aerial vehicles
Gökçe, Fatih; Üçoluk, Göktürk; Department of Computer Engineering (2015)
In this thesis, we study visual detection and distance estimation of Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (mUAVs), a crucial problem for (i) intrusion detection of mUAVs in protected environments, (ii) sense and avoid purposes on mUAVs or on other aerial vehicles and (iii) multi-mUAV control scenarios such as environmental monitoring, surveillance and exploration. The problem is challenging since (i) a real-time solution is required, a burden when computational power is limited by the hardware carried by an mUAV,...
Vision-Based Detection and Distance Estimation of Micro Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Gökçe, Fatih; Üçoluk, Göktürk; Şahin, Erol; Kalkan, Sinan (MDPI, ST ALBAN-ANLAGE 66, CH-4052 BASEL, SWITZERLAND, 2015-9)
Detection and distance estimation of micro unmanned aerial vehicles (mUAVs) is crucial for (i) the detection of intruder mUAVs in protected environments; (ii) sense and avoid purposes on mUAVs or on other aerial vehicles and (iii) multi-mUAV control scenarios, such as environmental monitoring, surveillance and exploration. In this article, we evaluate vision algorithms as alternatives for detection and distance estimation of mUAVs, since other sensing modalities entail certain limitations on the environment...
Vision-based game design and assessment for physical exercise in a robot-assisted rehabilitation system
Erdogan, Huseyin; Palaska, Yunus; MAŞAZADE, ENGİN; EROL BARKANA, DUYGUN; Ekenel, Hazım Kemal (2018-02-01)
Engagement is a key factor in gaming. Especially, in gamification applications, users' engagement levels have to be assessed in order to determine the usability of the developed games. The authors first present computer vision-based game design for physical exercise. All games are played with gesture controls. The authors conduct user studies in order to evaluate the perception of the games using a game engagement questionnaire. Participants state that the games are interesting and they want to play them ag...
