Visual SLAM for scientific measurement

This project is ongoing.

I am looking for motivated students to work on a computer vision project in the biology department. The project centers on a specialized hyperspectral polarization camera (12 visual channels) that will be used to monitor and map out underwater environments. The part of the project that will involve students will be customizing the visual simultaneous localization and mapping program LSD-SLAM for use with this camera. The projects will include modifying the LSD-SLAM code, 3D data visualization, developing data analysis techniques, and user interface development.

Qualifications

proficient at c++ and/or Python and Linux systems

Duties

modifying the LSD-SLAM code, 3D data visualization, developing data analysis techniques, and user interface development.

I'M INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT. WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?

The Office of Undergraduate Research recommends that you attend an info session or advising before contacting faculty members or project contacts about research opportunities. We'll cover the steps to get involved, tips for contacting faculty, funding possibilities, and options for course credit. Once you have attended an Office of Undergraduate Research info session or spoken to an advisor, you can use the "Who to contact" details for this project to get in touch with the project leader and express your interest in getting involved.
