Subject: Looking for terrain range/altimeter data
Does anyone out there know where I can get range images (e.g. altimeter
data) of Earth terrain? Rugged terrain is preferred, but any kind of data is
welcome.
Thank you,
Boaz J. Super

Subject: texture segmentation software
I would like to perform some texture segmentation on simple (mainly two
classes) of textures..
Any leads to a public domain software (preferably in C)...
sincerely,

Below is his response and the posting.

I posted the article on rec.video, rec.audio and sci.electronics but no
responses.
The problem I have to solve is the recording of a image sequences taken from
a camera mounted on a robot together with data coming from odometry and
sonars. That tape will be our test set for robot navigation algorithms. So
even if the question is not directly related to computer vision I'm quite
sure that someone of the vision-list readers has solved the problem of
recording images synchronized with some data.
PROBLEM:
I want to record some information supplied from a rs232 together with images
onto a videorecorder. The problem I have to solve is the recording of a
image sequences taken from a camera mounted on a robot together with data
coming from odometry and sonars. That tape will be our test set for robot
navigation algorithms. So even if the question is not directly related to
computer vision I'm quite sure that someone of the vision-list readers has
solved the problem of recording images synchronized with some data.
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:
audio:
I could use something like a FSK modem but it seems that it works only up to
2400 baud. I'd like going up to 9600.
video:
I'd also prefer to record that info on the vertical interval time (so
that the info is really in sync with the image) but I'm open to any
suggestion.
WHAT I NEED:
Pointers to something on the market (I'm sure that someone is making
a machine to record EEG or ECG onto a VHS recorder);
- or -
Pointers to something I could assemble;
- or -
Hints how to build my own encoder.
PLEASE E-MAIL I'll summarize to the net.

Subject: 1990 IMAGE UNDERSTANDING WORKSHOP
This is first announcement message about the 1990 Image Understanding
Workshop. This DARPA sponsored meeting is scheduled for 11-13 September
at the Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, Pa. Hotel arrangements
are at the co-located Vista International.
As most of you already know, the workshop this year will vary slightly
from the format used over the past several years. This year there will be
two types of presentations: Expanded P.I. Overviews, and Tutorial
Overviews of Selected Topics. More info on this to follow soon.
The pacing item, as always, is the completion of the P.I. Overview
and technical papers. The deadline for receipt of papers at SAIC is
July 1,1990. This early date is necessary in order to insure on-time
submission by the selected researchers of the third type of published
paper, the Tutorial Overview. The Tutorial Overviews must be received
by July 23,1990. This will permit completion of the assembled book
and publication by Morgan Kaufmann in time to receive the Proceedings
in Pittsburgh for distribution at the start of the workshop. More info
on style and paper format to follow shortly.
This preliminary announcement is being sent as a reminder to all
that feverish activity on preparation of papers should already be
underway. Also, with the many changes in the ARPANET, I want to be sure
that this message is received by all addressees. Please send me an
acknowledgment by return message so that I can quickly follow-up on
any non receipts.
Takeo Kanade of CMU is the program chairperson and local host.
I will function as collector and arranger of the Proceedings and
coordinator for the workshop.
I hope to get additional details to everyone by later this week.
Please send messages or queries to Bauman at A.ISI.EDU, phone calls
to (703) 734-4092.
Best, Lee
