IPAB Workshop - Depth estimation with light field Cameras: What can we learn from insect eyes?

Abstract: Fast and accurate depth estimation remains a major challenge in computer vision, particularly at long distances and in dynamic scenes.

Inspired by biological vision, we explore the similarities between insect compound eyes and light field cameras - both of which enable depth perception by capturing multiple viewpoints of a scene. Additionally, we investigate whether the light-induced motion of photoreceptors in the fly eye can be used to
