Overview of modern technologies for measuring, predicting and correcting turbulent distortions in optical waves by V.P. Lukin, I.P. Lukin

“…The work consists of the following parts: description of a technique for measuring fluctuations of optical waves in an atmospheric path, theoretical calculations of fluctuations by analytical analysis and mathematical modeling methods, technology for predicting turbulent air movement by the numerical solution of the Navier–Stokes equations and, finally, constructing adaptive optics systems that compensate for the turbulent distortions in optoelectronic image construction systems. Attention is focused on the peculiarities of fluctuations of specially created Laguerre–Gaussian and Bessel–Gaussian beams. …”

An Active System for Visually-Guided Reaching in 3D across Binocular Fixations by Ester Martinez-Martin, Angel P. del Pobil, Manuela Chessa, Fabio Solari, Silvio P. Sabatini

“…So, the motor information is coded in egocentric coordinates obtained from the allocentric representation of the space (in terms of disparity) generated from the egocentric representation of the visual information (image coordinates). In that way, the different aspects of the visuomotor coordination are integrated: an active vision system, composed of two vergent cameras; a module for the 2D binocular disparity estimation based on a local estimation of phase differences performed through a bank of Gabor filters; and a robotic actuator to perform the corresponding tasks (visually-guided reaching). …”
