Computational harmonic analysis for human and robotic vision systems

This paper studies the relevance of the conformal camera to computational vision with a particular focus on stereopsis. First we review projective Fourier analysis of the conformal camera and point to its unique attributes for modeling physiological aspects of perception. Then we design the head–eye–visual cortex integrated system with each eye modeled by the conformal camera. It provides a biologically realistic computational approach to the process of stereoscopic depth perception.
