LDRMC 2011 - 1st IEEE Workshop on Live Dense Reconstruction with Moving Cameras

Live dense reconstruction of surface geometry is now a reality. In the past decade computer vision has yielded a number of robust and fast techniques to obtain on commodity hardware and in real-time, sparse or dense correspondences that enable real time 6dof camera localisation. Together with fast multiple view stereo methods that provide globally optimal results and surface reconstruction techniques, live dense reconstruction of surface geometry promises to accelerate a growing number of application areas in robotics and augmented reality.

At the same time important constraints are obtained from a real-time data stream with data redundancy and planning from a human or robot in-the-loop that provide interesting new problems and the possibility of novel solutions in dense reconstruction.

The workshop will bring together researchers in robotics and vision to synthesise state-of-the-art theory and practice in live dense reconstruction from moving cameras including passive and active RGB-D devices. See the workshop call for participation of live demonstrations, posters and extended abstracts.
