| Research Abstract |
We proposed a 3D tracking technique that integrates a single camera and ultrasound. We use ultrasound to measure the distance accurately to a moving target and the camera for identifying the 2D position of the target on the image plane. A prototype system consists of a target unit mounting one ultrasound transmitter, and a receiver unit with one inexpensive camera and one ultrasound receiver. We implemented these units in a lightweight and compact way to make the system robust to non-line-of-sight problems. To improve the ranging performance, we applied phase characteristic compensation of the ultrasound transducers by interpolating with a B-spline function and creating a compensated curved surface. Experimental results show that root-mean-square errors of the proposed system are 1.20mm and 1.66mm for static and mobile (target velocity: 1.0 m/s) settings, respectively. Thus, the performance of the system is comparable with that of high-end systems.
