Robust curb and ramp detection with TOF camera
Range sensors for
assisted backup and parking have potential for saving human lives and
for facilitating parking in challenging situations. However, important
features such as curbs and ramps are difficult to detect using
ultrasonic or microwave sensors. TOF imaging range sensors may be used
successfully for this purpose.
System design of TOF range camera for backup application
External
sensing applications in automobiles are enabled by Microsystems that can
sense and analyze 3D environment. In this paper, we describe the system
design of a time-of-flight (TOF) 3D range camera for parking assist and
backup application.
Realtime foreground segmentation for background substitution application
This paper describes a real-time method for
foreground/background segmentation of a color video sequence based
primarily on range data of a time-of-flight sensor.

Introduction to 3D Vision in CMOS
This paper provides an introduction to the Canesta technology. The paper seeks to be less technical, and in some cases trades absolute accuracy for ease of reading, to address a wider audience.
