Summary: This paper proposes a novel imaging model of off-axis non-central spherical mirrored vision sensor, which realizes the mapping from three-dimensional space to the two-dimensional image plane through spherical mirror reflection and rectifies spherical distortion. The imaging effect of the model is verified and error analysis is conducted. The research quantitatively describes the mapping relationship and expands the field-of-view, providing a new idea for establishing the measurement model of mirrored stereo vision sensor.

Summary: A visual localizer is proposed to address the challenge of rover relocalization on Mars, exhibiting robustness to barren terrain and large lighting differences. By synthesizing partial renderings and matching them to R1 images, the method effectively solves the relocalization problem of the rover. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.

Summary: In order to reduce the deviation in the imaging dimension of workpieces in monocular vision systems and improve the accuracy of dimensional measurement, a BRR-SVR-BPNN weighted voting ensemble learning deviation prediction algorithm is proposed. The algorithm combines the features of probability inference, maximum interval penalty, and nonlinear expression to achieve accurate prediction of deviation. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the algorithm, making it easily applicable in industrial settings for improving workpiece dimension measurement accuracy.
