CIPS Projects
These are some projects that we're interested in pursuring (not guaranteed to be a complete list!).
Contact Professor Hager unless otherwise noted.
Mechatronics
-Monster Trucks Get Smart-
We're interested in developing a set of cheap, reliable, vision-based vehicles.
The general idea would be to find an off-the-shelf, reasonably rugged radio-operated
vehicle, to strap a small notebook to its back, and to equip it with a PCMCIA
framegrabber (or to use the onboard vision available in some notebooks). The idea
is then to use XVision and the
FROB/FVision development environment
to write interesting systems for vision-based interaction and navigation.
Software
-XVision2-
We are interested in updating the design and capabilities of
XVision, our visual tracking system. Some
initial work in this direction was done by Christopher Cantor, but much more remains
to be done. Ideas for the redesign appear in a
paper and a talk.
Medical
-Retinal Tracking-
Using video of images taken of the retinal disk, develop tracking methods for computing the
motion of the disk relative to the microscope, and combine this with an existing visualization
system to create synchronized motion of a simulated eye.
-Image Mosaicking-
Given images from a high-resolution endoscope, create a "mosaic" of those images; a follow-on
is to register those with lower resolution images taken from an inter-ocular microscope.
-Three-dimensional registration-
Given CAT scans in the area of the knee, try extending techniques developed for 2-D affine
registration under variable illumination to 3-D data. The result would be a novel method
of registering "live" data to an atlas, or to a canonical bone image.
