Group S2 Summary

Group S2 Summary

• Rich Wrigley

2
We needed to

• Learn how to used the eyeballs
• Learn how to use Paintshop Pro
• Create Anaglyphs
• Solid angle theory
• Measure disparity of images to choose best camera
  separation
• Determine best separation etc. for a lander
• Image a crater (If we had time)

3
Creating Anaglyphs - (and going insane in the
process)

• First attempts were fairly low tech. Mainly
  just test driving the cameras.
• Later on measured disparity and used solid angle
  theory to refine the process, and choose the best
  camera separation as well as size and distance of
  object.
• Making anaglyphs on PaintshopPro

4
PainshopPro

• Take two images of one object.
• Make the two images semitransparent.
• Tint one red and one blue.
• Merge them.

5
Disparity

• 
  Take two images using the eyeballs. Measure
  the distance between a fixed point of the images.
  We varied the eyeball separation, and the
  distance of the fixed point.

6
Some results
7
because were nerds and like graphs.
8
Imaging the crater.

• Worked with a Planetary Cratering GReP.
• Using data obtained, used the best camera
  separation (18cm) and object distance (75cm) to
  image crater.
• Created anaglyph as done previously.

Best cameras for a lander

• Decided to get a good anaglyph eyeball separation
  needed to be separation of eyeballs
• This would allow us to image objects that were
  close up (1-3m)
• Eyeball distance also good size to easily fit on
  lander.
• Larger objects and distances need larger eyeball
  separation.
• Therefore our landers stereo camera good for
  imaging rocks and close up objects, but not
  mountains etc.
