An investigation of long-range stereopsis

我们的项目将是第一个检查深度、倾斜和曲率的远程立体感知，以及地面倾斜和曲率的感知变化的项目。该研究在探索单眼距离线索如地平面、透视和地平线对立体视觉尺度的影响方面也具有一定的理论意义和新颖性。确定立体视觉的使用范围也有许多实际应用，例如，对于理解车辆导航(如直升机着陆)，以及自然运动和路线规划。这项研究之所以成为可能，是因为设计了创新的设备，允许远程目标的快速变化。

Our project will be the first to examine long-range stereoscopic perceptions of depth, slant and curvature, as well as perceived changes in slant and curvature on the ground. The research is also theoretically significant and novel in exploring the scaling of stereopsis by monocular distance cues such as the ground plane, perspective and horizon. Determining the useful range of stereopsis also has many practical applications e.g. for understanding vehicle guidance (eg helicopter landing), as well as natural locomotion and route planning. The research is possible because of innovative equipment designed to allow for fast changes in remote targets.
