-== Depth-Adaptive Superpixels (BA/MA)== 
- {{ :research:dt_dasp.png?200|}} 
-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, ... 
- 
-Requirements: 
-  * Basic knowledge of image processing 
-  * Good programming skills in C/C++. 
-  * Experience with CUDA is helpful

-== Physical Simulation of Humans (BA/MA)== 
- {{ :research:human_model.png?200|}} 
- 
-For tracking people, the use of particle filters is a common approach. However, the quality of those filters heavily depends on the way particles are spread. In this thesis, a library for the physical simulation of a human model is to be implemented. 
- 
-Requirements: 
-  * Good programming skills in C/C++ 
-  * Optional: Experience in working with physics libraries such as Bullet

 +== Automated sensor calibration toolkit (MA)==
 +
 +Computer vision is an important part of autonomous robots. For robots the image sensors are the main source of information of the surrounding world. Each camera is different, even if they are from the same production line. For computer vision, especially for robots manipulating their environment, it is important that the parameters for the cameras in use are well known. The calibration of a camera is a time consuming task, and the result depends highly on the chosen setup and the accuracy of the operator.
 +
 +The topic for this master thesis is to develop an automated system for calibrating cameras, especially RGB-D cameras like the Kinect v2.
 +
 +The system should be:
 +  * independent of the camera type
 +  * estimate intrinsics and extrinsics
 +  * have depth calibration (case of RGBD)
 +  * integrate capabilities from Halcon [1]
 +
 +Requirements: 
 +  * Good programming skills in Python and C/C++
 +  * ROS, OpenCV
