It is based on a combination of Mars rover imagery and 3D point cloud data. First, Navcam or Pancam images taken by the Mars rovers are segmented into homogeneous objects with a mean-shift algorithm. Then, the objects in the segmented images are classified into small rock candidates, rock shadows, and large objects. Rock shadows and large objects are considered as the regions within which large rocks may exist. In these regions, large rock candidates are extracted through ground-plane fitting with the 3D point cloud data. Small and large rock candidates are combined and postprocessed to obtain the final rock extraction results. The shape properties of the rocks （angularity, circularity, width, height, and width-height ratio） have been calculated for subsequent ~eological studies.展开更多

Digital image processing technology is used in this research. Based on the 3D point from depth camera, the system firstly extracts some raw data of the hand. After the data segmentation and preprocessing, three kinds of appearance features are extracted, including the number of stretched fingers, the angles between fingers and the gesture region’s area distribution feature. Based on these features, the system implements the identification of the gestures by using decision tree method. The results of experiment demonstrate that the proposed method is pretty efficient to recognize common gestures with a high accuracy.展开更多

Existing spatial domain steganalysis algorithms are subject to more disturbing factors during the analysisand detection process, and can only be applied to 3D mesh objects, so there is a lack of steganalysis algorithms for 3Dpoint cloud objects. To change the fact that steganalysis is limited to 3D mesh and eliminate the redundant featuresin the 3D mesh steganalysis feature set, we propose a 3D point cloud steganalysis algorithm based on compositeoperator feature enhancement. First, the 3D point cloud is normalized and smoothed. Second, the feature pointsthat may contain secret information in 3D point clouds and their neighboring points are extracted as the featureenhancement region by the improved 3DHarris-ISS composite operator. Feature enhancement is performed in thefeature enhancement region to form a feature-enhanced 3D point cloud, which highlights the feature points whilesuppressing the interference created by the rest of the vertices. Third, the existing 3D mesh feature set is screenedto reduce the data redundancy of more relevant features, and the newly proposed local neighborhood feature setis added to the screened feature set to form the 3D point cloud steganography feature set POINT72. Finally,the steganographic features are extracted from the enhanced 3D point cloud using the POINT72 feature set, andsteganalysis experiments are carried out. Experimental analysis shows that the algorithm can accurately analyzethe 3D point cloud’s spatial steganography and determine whether the 3D point cloud contains hidden information,so the accuracy of 3D point cloud steganalysis, under the prerequisite of missing edge and face information, is closeto that of the existing 3D mesh steganalysis algorithms.展开更多

文摘Owing to the constraints of unstructured environments,it is difficult to ensure safe,accurate,and smooth completion of tasks using autonomous robots.Moreover,for small-batch and customized tasks,autonomous operation requires path planning for each task,thus reducing efficiency.We propose a human-robot shared control system based on a 3D point cloud and teleoperation for a robot to assist human operators in the performance of dangerous and cumbersome tasks.The system leverages the operator’s skills and experience to deal with emergencies and perform online error correction.In this framework,a depth camera acquires the 3D point cloud of the target object to automatically adjust the end-effector orientation.The operator controls the manipulator trajectory through a teleoperation device.The force exerted by the manipulator on the object is automatically adjusted by the robot,thus reducing the workload for the operator and improving the efficiency of task execution.In addition,hybrid force/motion control is used to decouple teleoperation from force control to ensure that force and position regulation will not interfere with each other.The proposed framework was validated using the ELITE robot to perform a force control scanning task.

文摘Tree skeleton could be useful to agronomy researchers because the skeleton describes the shape and topological structure of a tree.The phenomenon of organs’mutual occlusion in fruit tree canopy is usually very serious,this should result in a large amount of data missing in directed laser scanning 3D point clouds from a fruit tree.However,traditional approaches can be ineffective and problematic in extracting the tree skeleton correctly when the tree point clouds contain occlusions and missing points.To overcome this limitation,we present a method for accurate and fast extracting the skeleton of fruit tree from laser scanner measured 3D point clouds.The proposed method selects the start point and endpoint of a branch from the point clouds by user’s manual interaction,then a backward searching is used to find a path from the 3D point cloud with a radius parameter as a restriction.The experimental results in several kinds of fruit trees demonstrate that our method can extract the skeleton of a leafy fruit tree with highly accuracy.
