(With apologies for any cross postings.)
For more than two decades the Videometrics conferences have been providing a unique forum for vision metrology, photogrammetry, computer vision and image analysis researchers, developers and practitioners to present the latest advances in precise 3D measurement and accurate modeling from imaging and range sensors. The 13th edition of the Videometrics conference will focus on image and range data processing and modeling in applications such as rapid product development, monitoring, precision metrology, deformation analyses, 3D digitizing, material and component testing, human body modeling, surveillance, industrial inspections, cultural heritage applications and medicine.
Videometrics will be held within SPIE Optical Metrology, the premier conference in Europe that brings together users and researchers to discuss the latest inventions and applications in the field of optical metrology. Optical Metrology will contain six conferences that focus on new optical principles and systems for metrology, videometrics and machine vision with applications in industrial design, production engineering, process monitoring, maintenance support, biotechnology, vehicle navigation, multimedia technology, architecture, archaeology and arts.
Optical Metrology is co-located with the Laser World of Photonics 2015, providing delegates with access to a huge exhibit of the latest technology associated with lasers and optical systems, and offering an excellent opportunity to connect with engineers, researchers and developers from Europe and beyond.
In 2015 Videometrics will feature three excellent invited speakers who will present the latest algorithms and techniques in optical metrology and tracking.
For Videometrics 2015, we invite submission of original research contributions, as well as demonstrations of successful applications in (but not limited to) the following technical areas:
-
3D sensing and calibration: passive and active sensors, unmanned platforms, automated calibration orientation, performance assessment
-
3D processing and modeling: complex environments, passive and active scanning, deformation and deformable surfaces, image matching strategies
-
motion capture and animation: image sequence capture and display, image matching, motion tracking and real time analysis
-
visualization: rendering, multi-resolution representations, texture acquisition and mapping
-
3D applications in the fields of engineering, industry, medicine, cultural heritage, bioscience, environment and entertainment
