Motion stereo at sea: Dense 3D reconstruction from image sequences monitoring conveyor systems on board fishing vessels

IET Image Processing, 2023
A system that reconstructs 3D models from a single camera monitoring fish transported on a conveyor system is investigated. Models are subsequently used for training a species classifier and for improving estimates of discarded biomass.

Equal Baseline Camera Array—Calibration, Testbed and Applications

Applied Sciences, 2021
This paper presents research on 3D scanning by taking advantage of a camera array consisting of up to five adjacent cameras. Such an array makes it possible to make a disparity map with a higher precision than a stereo camera, however it preserves the ...

Microscale Mapping of Fiber Strain and Damage in Composite Wrinkled Laminates Using Computed Tomography Assisted Wide‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study combines full‐field tomography with diffraction mapping to quantify radial (ε002$\varepsilon _{002}$) and axial (ε100$\varepsilon _{100}$) lattice strain in wrinkled carbon‐fiber specimens for the first time. Radial microstrain gradients (−14.5 µεMPa$\varepsilon \mathrm{MPa}$−1) are found to signal damage‐prone zones ahead of failure, which ...

Developing Soft Interconnected Microchannel Network for 2D Skin‐Like Actuator

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A soft interconnected network of microchannels is proposed to develop new pneumatic actuators for future bio‐inspired soft robots. Simultaneous stimulation of this network generates regional asymmetric strains in walls of microchannels whose interaction across the entire surface leads to bending curvatures in multidimensions.
