    • Ill-Posed Problems and Regularization Analysis in Early Vision 

      Tomaso, Poggio; Torre, Vincent (1984-04-01)
      One of the best definitions of early vision is that it is inverse optics --- a set of computational problems that both machines and biological organisms have to solve. While in classical optics the problem is to determine ...

    • Determining Grasp Points Using Photometric Stereo and the PRISM Binocular Stereo System 

      Ikeuchi, Katsushi; Nishihara, Keith H.; Horn, Berthold K.P.; Sobalvarro, Patrick; Nagata, Shigemi (1984-08-01)
      This paper describes a system which locates and grasps doughnut shaped parts from a pile. The system uses photometric stereo and binocular stereo as vision input tools. Photometric stereo is used to make surface ...

    • Basic Solid Mechanics for Tactile Sensing 

      Fearing, Ronald S.; Hollerbach, John M. (1984-03-01)
      In order to stably grasp objects without using object models, tactile feedback from the fingers is sometimes necessary. This feedback can be used to adjust grasping forces to prevent a part form slipping from a hand. ...
