Performance of a Time-of-Flight Range Camera for Intelligent Vehicle Safety Applications

Review of Methods for Determining the Spatial Resolution of Uav Sensors

“…they measure the movement of each point on the scene This technology is often compared LiDAR technology, except that the data are not obtained point by point with an active sensor, but are recorded at the same time for the entire scene. This technology is used in many everyday applications, for example in active pedestrian safety (Hsu, et al, 2006), or as an additional element in the latest game consoles such as the Xbox One, allowing the user greater interaction in many games (Rubin, 2013). The technology is also used for topographical applications for obtaining digital elevation models (Nitsche et al, 2013).…”

System design of time-of-flight range camera for car park assist and backup application

“…The detection is performed using a computer vision algorithm that estimates the ground plane behind the car, and detects the objects that are taller than certain height threshold above the ground and wider than certain width threshold, and are in the trajectory of the car as it backs up [4].…”

“…In this work, we develop our system analysis with Canesta's [1, 3,4] Electronic Perception (EP) 3D TOF camera technology. To capture the depth, each camera pixel measures the time delay of modulated infrared light from an active emitter.…”

Graffiti Detection Using a Time-Of-Flight Camera

“…Although the first generation of these sensors had several limitations, TOF technology gained remarkable interest by virtue of its potential suitability to many real applications. Several studies were aimed at assessing the performance of TOF technology [7,8,9] and compare it with other state of the art technologies for depth perception such as stereo vision [10,11,12].…”

“…Nevertheless, in spite of their limitations, current generation of TOF based depth sensors was successfully used in several applications such as video surveillance and tracking [13], facial features detection and tracking [14], classification of moving objects [15], gesture recognition [16], documentation of heritage objects [11], robot vision and obstacle detection [17,18], safety [12]. Some authors combined TOF sensors with additional high resolution cameras [19,20] in order to overcome the limitations of the embedded CMOS camera or stereo vision systems [21,22] in order to improve effectiveness of depth perception.…”
