Introduction

The so-called "bird view" camera is a recent concept that involves having cameras positioned around a vehicle to give the driver a better view of their surroundings.

 

For agricultural uses this is likely to involve having several cameras to give the driver a 360° view of the tractor + towed implement for better manoeuvring.

 

The Chair is developing a proof-of-concept and is seeking an enthusiastic student to take the first steps using four or more cameras. The focus is in calibration routines and image processing.

 

Aims:

• Implementing data-fusion techniques for multi-camera setup
• Researching camera synchronization aspects
• Use the OpenCV library to stitch together the images from the different cameras
• Display 360 view to the tractor operator

 

Prerequisites

• Interest in agricultural engineering
• Structured and independent way of working
• Good written and spoken English
• Programming skills (C/C++)
• Experience with OpenCV is not required
