Synopsis

Correlating Time-of-Flight (TOF) camera systems provide a novel approach to indirect range measurement. These systems pack the accuracy of common one-point TOF range measurements inside each pixel of a digital video camera. The user therefore receives a complete depth map of the acquired scene. Simultaneously, the system provides a grayscale image of the scene thus delivering also the common data received from every 2D grayscale camera. Today, at least two different technical realisations of the measurement principle are available as prototype camera systems, though the problems - especially the core principal's systematic errors are yet to be completely understood and described. This book is the first of its kind, providing the user with solutions to problems that are likely to arise in real life applications. The measurement principle including its underlying model is discussed and an error analysis of the model is provided. A practical kick-start guide allows the user to quickly acquire acceptable range data from their TOF camera system.

Biographie de l'auteur

Holger Rapp studied physics at the University of Heidelberg. He conducted his diploma thesis in the ImageProcessing Group of Bernd Jähne about TOF 3D camera systems. At the moment, he is a scholarship student in the Karlsruhe School of Optics and Photonics (KSOP) andworks towards his Ph.D. at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). His research interest there focuses on thepractical application of optical physics in industry.
