3.1 Event-based motion compensation and object detection

This demo shows the performance of object detection and tracking algorithms.

source devel/setup.bash
roslaunch detector detection.launch

3.2 Moving ball trajectory estimation under motion-cap system

This demo shows detect and estimate the 3D trajectory of a throwing ball utilizing event and depth camera. The ground truth of the ball trajectory is captured by Vicon Motion Capture system.

source devel/setup.bash
roslaunch bullet_traj_est demo_traj_est_rviz.launch
