Download or read book 3D Object Processing written by Jean-Luc Dugelay and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The arrival, and continuing evolution, of high quality 3D objects has been made possible by recent progress in 3D scanner acquisition and 3D graphics rendering. With this increasing quality comes a corresponding increase in the size and complexity of the data files and the necessity for advances in compression techniques. Effective indexing to facilitate the retrieval of the 3D data is then required to efficiently store, search and recapture the objects that have been compressed. The application of 3D images in fields such as communications, medicine and the military also calls for copyright protection, or watermarking, to secure the data for transmission. Written by expert contributors, this timely text brings together the three important and complementary topics of compression, retrieval and watermarking techniques for 3D objects. 3D object processing applications are developing rapidly and this book tackles the challenges and opportunities presented, focusing on the secure transmission, sharing and searching of 3D objects on networks, and includes: an introduction to the commonly used 3D representation schemes; the characteristics, advantages and limitations of polygonal meshes, surface based models and volumetric models; 3D compression techniques; the 3D coding and decoding schemes for reducing the size of 3D data to reduce transmission time and minimize distortion; state of the art responses to the intrinsic challenges of building a 3D-model search engine, considering view-based, structural and full-3D approaches; watermarking techniques for ensuring intellectual property protection and content security without altering the visual quality of the 3D object. 3D Object Processing: Compression, Indexing and Watermarking is an invaluable resource for graduate students and researchers working in signal and image processing, computer aided design, animation and imaging systems. Practising engineers who want to expand their knowledge of 3D video objects, including data compression, indexing, security, and copyrighting of information, will also find this book of great use.

Download or read book Video Processing and Computational Video written by Daniel Cremers and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-11-10 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the swift development of video imaging technology and the drastic improvements in CPU speed and memory, both video processing and computational video are becoming more and more popular. Similar to the digital revolution in photography of fifteen years ago, today digital methods are revolutionizing the way television and movies are being made. With the advent of professional digital movie cameras, digital projector technology for movie theaters, and 3D movies, the movie and television production pipeline is turning all-digital, opening up numerous new opportunities for the way dynamic scenes are acquired, video footage can be edited, and visual media may be experienced. This state-of-the-art survey provides a compilation of selected articles resulting from a workshop on Video Processing and Computational Video, held at Dagstuhl Castle, Germany, in October 2010. The seminar brought together junior and senior researchers from computer vision, computer graphics, and image communication, both from academia and industry, to address the challenges in computational video. During this workshop, 43 researchers from all over the world discussed the state of the art, contemporary challenges, and future research in imaging, processing, analyzing, modeling, and rendering of real-world, dynamic scenes. The 8 thoroughly revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 30 lectures given at the seminar. The articles give a good overview of the field of computational video and video processing with a special focus on computational photography, video-based rendering, and 3D video.

Book excerpt: Mobile Response 2008, the Second International Workshop on Mobile Infor- tion Technology for Emergency Response, aimed at a focussed exchange on how mobile information technology can be e?ectively used to the bene?t of em- gency response. The gap between the great potential bene?t that usable mobile IT could yield in the domain of emergency response and the speci?c design challenges for such technologies in this particularly unforgiving domain was the foundation of our decision to create a venue for researchers and practitioners from di?erent disciplines. During this year’s workshopthe latest approachesand technical solutions in the area of mobile information technology for emergency response planning and execution were presented and demonstrated. We invited participation from research, industry and public rescue orga- zations to enable an in-depth discussion of the opportunities and drawbacks of new digital technologies for emergency response. The call for papers for the second Mobile Response workshop attracted over 25 submissions from 11 d- ferent countries, including international submissions from the USA, Brazil and Japan.AninternationalProgramCommitteewithexpertsonmobileinformation technology, emergency response and emergency response equipment selected 12 submissions for presentation during the workshop. The program was completed by two outstanding keynote presentations and one invited presentation on p- vailing topics of high interest to the scienti?c and practitioner communities.
