摘要:
A system and method for efficiently locating in 3D an object of interest in a target scene using video information captured by a plurality of cameras. The system and method provide for multi-camera visual odometry wherein pose estimates are generated for each camera by all of the cameras in the multi-camera configuration. Furthermore, the system and method can locate and identify salient landmarks in the target scene using any of the cameras in the multi-camera configuration and compare the identified landmark against a database of previously identified landmarks. In addition, the system and method provide for the integration of video-based pose estimations with position measurement data captured by one or more secondary measurement sensors, such as, for example, Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) and Global Positioning System (GPS) units.

摘要:
A method for estimating pose from a sequence of images, which includes the steps of detecting at least three feature points in both the left image and right image of a first pair of stereo images at a first point in time; matching the at least three feature points in the left image to the at least three feature points in the right image to obtain at least three two-dimensional feature correspondences; calculating the three-dimensional coordinates of the at least three two-dimensional feature correspondences to obtain at least three three-dimensional reference feature points; tracking the at least three feature points in one of the left image and right image of a second pair of stereo images at a second point in time different from the first point in time to obtain at least three two-dimensional reference feature points; and calculating a pose based on the at least three three-dimensional reference feature points and its corresponding two-dimensional reference feature points in the stereo images. The pose is found by minimizing projection residuals of a set of three-dimensional reference feature points in an image plane.

A method and apparatus for providing three-dimensional navigation for a node comprising an inertial measurement unit for providing gyroscope, acceleration and velocity information (collectively IMU information); a ranging unit for providing distance information relative to at least one reference node; at least one visual sensor for providing images of an environment surrounding the node; a preprocessor, coupled to the inertial measurement unit, the ranging unit and the plurality of visual sensors, for generating error states for the IMU information, the distance information and the images; and an error-state predictive filter, coupled to the preprocessor, for processing the error states to produce a three-dimensional pose of the node.
摘要:
A system and method for generating a mixed-reality environment is provided. The system and method provides a user-worn sub-system communicatively connected to a synthetic object computer module. The user-worn sub-system may utilize a plurality of user-worn sensors to capture and process data regarding a user's pose and location. The synthetic object computer module may generate and provide to the user-worn sub-system synthetic objects based information defining a user's real world life scene or environment indicating a user's pose and location. The synthetic objects may then be rendered on a user-worn display, thereby inserting the synthetic objects into a user's field of view. Rendering the synthetic objects on the user-worn display creates the virtual effect for the user that the synthetic objects are present in the real world.

摘要:
A method of making a transistor, comprising: providing a semiconductor substrate; forming a gate stack over the semiconductor substrate; forming an insulating layer over the semiconductor substrate; forming a depleting layer over the insulating layer; etching the depleting layer and the insulating layer; forming a metal layer over the semiconductor substrate; performing thermal annealing; and removing the metal layer. As advantages of the present invention, an upper outside part of each of the sidewalls include a material that can react with the metal layer, so that metal on two sides of the sidewalls is absorbed during the annealing process, preventing the metal from diffusing toward the semiconductor layer, and ensuring that the formed Schottky junctions can be ultra-thin and uniform, and have controllable and suppressed lateral growth.

An asymetric gate MOS device is disclosed. The gate is a metal gate, and the metal gate has a different work function on the source side from that on the drain side of the MOS device, so that the overall performance parameters of the MOS device are more optimized. A method of making an asymetric gate MOS device is also disclosed. In the method, dopant ions are implanted into the gate of the MOS device, so as to cause the gate to have a different work function on the source side from that on the drain side of the MOS device. As a result, the overall performance parameters of the MOS device are more optimized. The method can be easily implemented.
