Three dimensional vision - Requirements and applications in a space environmentVarious approaches to three-dimensional vision in space are reviewed with emphasis on the redundant 3D vision system designed for the Center for Intelligent Robotic Systems for Space Exploration. The system uses a controllable subset of five cameras, programmable structured light patterns, and sophisticated calibration routines. The design emphasizes real-time operation, human supervisory intervention, and the use of 3D vision to enhance the performance of cooperating robotic arms. Two methods of estimating the location of a point using 3D vision are discussed.
