IEEE Hong Kong Section Student Paper Contest 2010
– Call for Paper
CPEG year-3 student Shi Jiahui, supervised by Prof. Quan Long of the CSE Department, has been awarded Second Prize in the IEEE Hong Kong Section 2009 UG Student Paper Contest for her paper "Real-time Ego-motion Measurement with Stereo Camera & IMU".
In autonomous vehicle and robot navigation, many control and planning decisions rely on the ego-motion and location of the vehicle. The ego-motion can be measured by an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) or by computer vision techniques. But both methods suffer from their own disadvantages. To achieve a much better performance, Jiahui combined these two methods and built a real-time ego-motion measurement system consisting of a stereo camera and an IMU. The applications also include augmented reality and 3D reconstruction.
