[General] CfP: Workshop on 3D Imaging

[Apologies if you receive this CFP several times] --------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------- WORKSHOP ON DYNAMIC 3D IMAGING IN CONJUNCTION WITH Symp. of the German Association for Pattern Recognition, DAGM September 11th, 2007, Heidelberg GENERAL INFORMATION http://www.multisensorics.de/dyn3d IMPORTANT DATES Submission of full papers: May 14th, 2007 Notification of acceptance: July 30th, 2007 Final versions due: August 10th, 2007 Workshop: September 11th, 2007 SCOPE 3D imaging sensors have been investigated for several decades. In recent years, improvements on classical approaches like stereo vision on the one hand, and novel techniques like ZCam or Photonic Mixing Device (PMD) on the other hand have emerged, leading to 3D vision systems with radically improved characteristics. Presently, these techniques make full-range 3D data available at interactive frame rates, and thus open the path towards a much broader application of 3D vision systems. The workshop focuses on sensor systems, data processing approaches and systems incorporating interactive, full-range 3D sensors in specific application areas. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Development of full-range 3D sensors or sensor systems, including - active and passive 3D imaging systems - 3D sensors operating at optical, near-infrared, terahertz and - microwave wavelengths - sensor simulation * Multi sensor fusion incorporating full-range 3D sensors * Data processing for dynamic full-range 3D-data, including - sensor based image synthesis - 3D object recognition - 3D optical flow - calibration techniques * Applications using interactive, full-range 3D sensors, e.g. in areas like - autonomous robotics - medicine - industrial automation Results of practical significance with an adequate inclusion of interactive 3D vision sensors will be considered. The content of submitted papers has to be novel.
