- | == Depth-Adaptive Superpixels (BA/MA)== | ||
- | {{ : | ||
- | 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. | ||
- | Since the current implementation of DASP is not very performant for high resolution images, there are several options for doing a project in this field like reimplementing DASP using CUDA, investigating how thermal data can be integrated, ... | + | == Realistic Grasping |
