Research Interests

I'm interested in camera based 3D reconstructions of large scenes. Current work includes the usage of a handheld RGBD-Camera to scan rooms, next steps will be the usage of quadcopters to cover larger areas and scan full buildings.

My Master's Thesis is about using a Kinect-Projector System to project undistorted images on arbitrary surfaces.
