\chapter{Multiview Geometry} This chapter deals with the camera models, projection of scene into image plane and two view geometry. \section{Pin Hole Camera Model} A camera is a mapping between the 3D world (object space) and a 2D image. The principal camera of interest in this thesis is central projection. This describes about Pin Hole camera model which are matrices with particular properties that represent the camera mapping.\\ \begin{figure}[h] \includegraphics[scale =…

and Computer Generated animation. Traditional animation is created by drawing every frame by hand. Then these frames are coloured and scanned onto a computer and the frames synced with sound. It’s an extremely time-consuming and labour intensive process. Stop motion is when an animator photographs an object or person one frame and motion at a time. Then those photographs are combined and sped up. Computer Generated animation is when an animator uses computer software to animate. The computer…

In this section, I will discuss how motion capture technology used in the making of ‘Avatar’ particularly via the swing camera. Motion capture in Avatar was exceptionally plugged for creating the realism of the film. However, motion capture was used in interestingly and creative ways in Avatar. One aspect of such use is employment of swing camera. People may ask what is swing camera? Swing camera is a virtual camera that could show the low resolution view of Pandora when shot the motion capture…

The use of 3D animation has grown enormously in feature films over the last decade. Major film studios, such as Disney and Pixar have released more 3D animated movies than ever before. Technology is advancing and consumers are demanding realistic animation along with this evolution. Based on the performance of recent 3D films, the trend of 3D animation is bound to continue and develop further. 3D animation’s influence on American society is growing with the help of the stable major…

understanding of logic” (Parks, 2009, p. 262). By evaluating the simulation, does it take information that gifted students understand already to a different level that might challenge them in many different aspects? If it doesn’t, and is just a computer activity that…

ability. The compliment surprised me, but I shocked him more so by informing him that I was completely self-taught! Throughout my life, self-learning has played an important role in a variety of areas. I was nine when my dad gave me an old pocket computer. The machine fascinated me, and, with the help of a textbook, I began writing my first programs shortly thereafter. As my programs grew in complexity, so did my reliance on outside resources for debugging. After…

A. Two Areas of Futuring Anticipating the future is an important component for many disciplines. It is also vital for individuals, businesses, and governments to ensure sustainability going into the future. Essentially, futuring does not concentrate on predicting the future but focuses on developing ways to improve it when it comes. Employing futuring techniques looks at ways to prepare for the future by making the appropriate adjustments based on the future expectations or trends (Sikkema,…

Introduction Simulations have been considered as powerful tools as they give us the ability to develop and nurture our management capabilities in a controlled environment. This is achieved through our ability to attempt a real-world process or system knowing we can go back on mistakes that have been made in order to better familiarise ourselves with the situation which lead to better results in any future runs. However, simulations do have a downfall in that they are merely just a representation…

the pattern and structure [3]. The filtering method is also introduced which is applied to dermoscopic skin image in a non-linear manner and allows selective image filtering. This feature is highly desirable due to the fact that in most cases of computer aided diagnostic, input images need to be pre-processed (e.g.for brightness normalization, histogram equalization, contrast enhancement, color normalization) and this can results in unwanted artifacts or simply may require human verification.…

2.10.1 Fuzzy Inference System (FIS) Fuzzy set theory explain this technique to enhance an image of handwritten scripts and for an edge detection of wrist X-ray images. In the case of the contrast enhancement process of an image, the Fuzzy set also seen as a collection of membership functions, where each represents how much degree of corresponding grayscale pixels is possible to be “bright”. In other words, a Fuzzy membership value of the image Fuzzy set can be understood as the degree of…
