Outline of Final Research Achievements

Computer vision has been developed global shutter and 2D degenerated image as an input for understanding 3D scene. However, the image is not always the best input image for any applications. In this project, we focused on the exposure timing of the sensor and we used programmable exposure sensor which can freely change the timing of the neighboring pixels. We utilize this flexibility of the exposure timing to the computational photography applications, and realize two example of the applications; compressive video sensing and dynamic photometric stereo.
