-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.+Contact: [[team:andrei_haidu|Andrei Haidu]]
  
-The topic for this thesis is to develop an automated system for calibrating cameras, especially RGB-D cameras like the Kinect v2.+== Integrating PR2 in the Unreal Game Engine Framework (BA/MA/HiWi)==

-Contact: [[team:ferenc_balint-benczedi|Ferenc Balint-Benczedi]]+The objective of the project is to implement var- 
 +ious human-like grasping approaches in a game developed using [[https://www.unrealengine.com/|Unreal Engine]]. 
  
-== Multi-expert segmentation of cluttered and occluded scenes == +The game consist of a household environment where a user has to execute various given tasks, such as cooking a dish, setting the table, cleaning the dishes etc. The interaction is done using various sensors to map the users hands onto the virtual hands in the game.
- +
-Objects in a human environment are usually found in challenging scenes. They can be stacked upon eachother, touching or occluding, can be found in drawers, cupboards, refrigerators and so on. A personal robot assistant in order to execute a task, needs to detect these objects and recognize them. In this thesis a multi-modal approach to interpreting cluttered scenes is going to be investigated, combining the results of multiple segmentation algorithms in order to come up with more reliable object hypotheses.+
  
 +In order to improve the ease of manipulating objects the user should
 +be able to switch during runtime the type of grasp (pinch, power
 +grasp, precision grip etc.) he/she would like to use.
