Ptu-024 - photometric stereo reconstruction for surface analysis of mucosal tissue (2015)
Journal Article
Poullis, A., Groves, C., Slabaugh, G., Emrith, K., & Smith, M. (2015). Ptu-024 - photometric stereo reconstruction for surface analysis of mucosal tissue. BMJ, 64(1), 68-69

This paper provides a novel approach for real-time detection of polyps. Using a photometric stereo sensor for endoscopy imaging in a porcine model, the 3D surface geometry of a porcine gut is recovered. Shape features are extracted from the 3D surfac...

Long-range concealed object detection through active covert illumination (2015)
Journal Article
Williamson, D. R., Hales, I. J., Hansen, M. F., Broadbent, L., & Smith, M. (2015). Long-range concealed object detection through active covert illumination. Proceedings of SPIE, 9648, https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2190194

© 2015 SPIE. When capturing a scene for surveillance, the addition of rich 3D data can dramatically improve the accuracy of object detection or face recognition. Traditional 3D techniques, such as geometric stereo, only provide a coarse grained recon... Read More about Long-range concealed object detection through active covert illumination.
