- | {{ : | + | |
- | We are currently investigating a new set of sensors (RGB-D-T), which is a combination of a kinect with a thermal image camera. Within this project we want to enhance the Depth-Adaptive Superpixels (DASP) to make use of the thermal sensor data. Depth-Adaptive Superpixels oversegment an image taking into account the depth value of each pixel. | + | |
