Object Recognition in Sensor Networks

Group Description:

The main topic of this field is the automatic detection and hand-over of objects within the data streams of a network of sensors. This includes the view-invariant description of objects, the multi-modal registration of video and laser sensor data, and the low bandwidth transfer of object information within the sensor network.

Projects 

  • Image based Object Localization
    The project aims for generic and high precision object geo-localization methods using previously acquired, large scale 3-D imagery.
  • Reconstruction of Moving Objects in Monocular Video Data.
    This project focuses on the reconstruction of the three-dimensional shape of moving objects in monocular video data using semantic information.
  • 3D Vehicle Trajectory Reconstruction in Monocular Video Data
    The determination of consistent object trajectories requires the definition of additional motion constraints. This project analyzes and evaluates suitable constraints.
  • The MODISSA testbed
    MODISSA (Mobile Distributed Situation Awareness) is the IOSB's realization of an experimental platform for hardware evaluation and software development in the contexts of automotive safety, security, and military applications.
