Active Human Pose Estimation via an Autonomous UAV Agent

IROS 2024poster

One of the core activities of an active observer involves moving to secure a "better" view of the scene, where the definition of "better" is task-dependent. This paper focuses on the task of human pose estimation from videos capturing a person’s activity. Self-occlusions within the scene can complic…

CodedEvents: Optimal Point-Spread-Function Engineering for 3D-Tracking with Event Cameras

CVPR 2024poster

Point-spread-function (PSF) engineering is a well-established computational imaging technique that uses phase masks and other optical elements to embed extra information (e.g. depth) into the images captured by conventional CMOS image sensors. To date however PSF-engineering has not been applied to…

0-MMS: Zero-Shot Multi-Motion Segmentation With A Monocular Event Camera

ICRA 2021poster

Segmentation of moving objects in dynamic scenes is a key process in scene understanding for navigation tasks. Classical cameras suffer from motion blur in such scenarios rendering them effete. On the contrary, event cameras, because of their high temporal resolution and lack of motion blur, are tai…

GapFlyt: Active Vision Based Minimalist Structure-Less Gap Detection For Quadrotor Flight

RA-L 2018

Although quadrotors, and aerial robots in general, are inherently active agents, their perceptual capabilities in literature so far have been mostly passive in nature. Researchers and practitioners today use traditional computer vision algorithms with the aim of building a representation of general
