An Introduction to 3D Computer Vision Techniques and Algorithms

John Wiley & Sons, 2009

Computer vision encompasses the construction of integrated vision systems and the application of vision to problems of real-world importance. The process of creating 3D models is still rather difficult, requiring mechanical measurement of the camera positions or manual alignment of partial 3D views of a scene. However using algorithms, it is...

Visualizing Magnetic Fields: Numerical Equation Solvers in Action (With CD-ROM)

Academic Press, 2001

The physicist Michael Faraday said that the study of magnetic lines of force was greatly influential in leading him to formulate many of those concepts that are now so fundamental to our modern world, proving to him their "great utility as well as fertility." Michael Faraday could only visualise these lines in his mind's eye and, even...

Frontiers of Geographic Information Technology

Springer, 2006

Although designed primarily for desktop mapping and analysis, Geographic Information Systems have, for some years, been ‘coupled’ to other ‘allied’ technologies. This coupling or integration has occurred for some time due to the limitations in commercially available systems. It has occurred in several areas including...
