Sub-optimal waypoints, UAV path planning and mosaicing application
2016
International audience; Create a complete system of video surveillance using camera mounted on a robot like UAV to maintain optimized vast area coverage and reconstruct an image by using mosaicing techniques. This paper demonstrated the efficiency of using one UAV to cover vast area using optimized positions.

Design and Calibration of an Omni-RGB plus D Camera
2016
International audience; In this paper, we present the design of a new camera combining both predator-like and prey-like vision features. This setup provides both a spherical RGB-view and a directional depth-view of the environment. The model and calibration of the full set-up are described. A few examples will be given to demonstrate the interest and the versatility of such camera for robotics and video surveillance at the oral presentation.
Advanced 3D movement analysis algorithms for robust functional capacity assessment.
2017
SummaryObjectives: We developed a novel system for in home functional capacities assessment in frail older adults by analyzing the Timed Up and Go movements. This system aims to follow the older people evolution, potentially allowing a forward detection of motor decompensation in order to trigger the implementation of rehabilitation. However, the pre-experimentations conducted on the ground, in different environments, revealed some problems which were related to KinectTM operation. Hence, the aim of this actual study is to develop methods to resolve these problems.Methods: Using the KinectTM sensor, we analyze the Timed Up and Go test movements by measuring nine spatio-temporal parameters, …
A Mobile Computing Framework for Pervasive Adaptive Platforms
2012
International audience; Ubiquitous computing is now the new computing trend, such systems that interact with their environment require self-adaptability. Bioinspiration is a natural candidate to provide the capability to handle complex and changing scenarios. This paper presents a programming framework dedicated to pervasive platforms programming. This bioinspired and agentoriented framework has been developed within the frame of the PERPLEXUS European project that is intended to provide support for bioinspiration-driven system adaptability. This framework enables the platform to adapt itself to application requirements at high-level while using hardware acceleration at node level. The resu…

Estimation des Cartes du Temps de Collision (TTC) en Vision Para-catadioptrique
2013
National audience; Le temps de contact ou le temps de collision (TTC) est une information importante pour la navigation et l'évitement d'obtacles. Son estimation a largement été étudiée dans le cas des caméras perspectives. Par contre, très peu de travaux ont été effectués sur ce sujet pour les caméras catadioptriques, alors qu'elles sont très utiles, notamment, en navigation des robots mobiles. L'objectif de cet article, est de proposer un nouveau modèle d'estimation du TTC pour les caméras paracatadioptriques basé sur le flot optique, en adaptant celui développé pour les caméras perspectives. Le calcul du TTC en chaque pixel permet d'obtenir la carte des temps de collision. Nous avons val…
Etude de caméras sphériques : du traitement des images aux applications en robotique
2012
La vision omnidirectionnelle permet de percevoir l'environnement sur 360◦. C'est un atout considérable pour un robot mobile puisque grâce à cette particularité, il peut tirer parti d'une information globale de la scène à tout moment. Les premières recherches allant dans ce sens remontent en 1990 avec les travaux de Yasushi Yagi qui a proposé d'utiliser un dispositif nommé COPIS en associant une caméra perspective et un miroir conique pour obtenir une vue panoramique de la scène. En 1995, Mouaddib et Pégard présentent un procédé similaire pour localiser un robot dans son environnement. Bien que ce système possède des avantages pour la localisation, il se révèle peu adéquat pour reconstruire …
Estimation de mouvement d'un système stéréoscopique hybride à partir des droites
2010
We present a motion estimation approach for hybrid stereo rigs using line images. The proposed method can be applied to a hybrid system built up from any single view point (SVP) cameras such as perspective, central catadioptric and fisheye cameras. Such configuration combines advantageous characteristics of different types of cameras. Images captured by SVP imaging devices may be mapped to spherical images using the unified projection model. It is possible to recover the camera orientations using vanishing points of parallel line sets. We then estimate the translations from known rotations and line images on the spheres. The algorithm has been validated on simulated data and real images tak…
Perception for Robotics: Part II
2019
«What is around me?»knowing how to answer to this question is essential for a robot to navigate safely in its environment. In this part, we will try to find some answers by introducing some tools for helping the robot to perceive the world. Thus, we will present different sensors (lasers, radars, cameras, RGBD sensors) which allow to build a 3D map of the scene where the robot is navigating. Then, we will mainly focus on cameras since these sensors give a rich information about the scene. We will see how we can extract features from the image in order to provide a 3D perception of the world. This chapter presents the main concepts required to start computer vision applied to robotics. It is…
