Funded Activity Summary

A Photometric Imaging Model for Mobile Underwater Camera Design. This project aims to develop the first photometric model of computational image formation from a mobile underwater platform, allowing the prediction of performance for conventional and computational cameras in physically grounded scenarios. The model is expected to include sufficient detail to predict key performance metrics relevant to targeted underwater imaging applications, including three-dimensional structure recovery, surface reflectance characterisation, and discrimination for automated and human-driven classification of benthic habitats. Novel imaging systems optimised for the requirements of specific marine imaging tasks are intended to be designed and constructed, exploiting the imaging model to rapidly explore the camera design space.
