Conception et réalisation de microsystèmes optiques (MOEMS) en polymère pour l'optique adaptative intégrée sur diodes laser verticales (VCSELs) / Design, fabrication and integration of active polymer optical microsystems (MOEMES) on VCSELs laser diodes

Abada, Sami 11 December 2015 (has links)
Ces travaux de thèse portent sur la conception, la réalisation et d'une nouvelle génération de MOEMS (Micro-Optical-Electrical-Mechanical System) pour le contrôle actif du faisceau laser émis par des matrices de VCSELs (Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers). Le microsystème à base de polymères que nous avons conçu est compatible avec une intégration monolithique en post-processing. Il est composé d'une membrane suspendue associée à une microlentille réfractive. Le plan de focalisation est contrôlé dynamiquement grâce au déplacement vertical de la membrane grâce à un actionnement électrothermique. La géométrie du MOEMS a été optimisée à l'aide notamment de simulations électro-thermo-mécaniques pour minimiser l'énergie de commande et fiabiliser les dispositifs. Nous avons ensuite développé l'ensemble des briques technologiques pour la fabrication collective de ce dispositif sur des matrices de VCSELs. En particulier, une technique originale de transfert thermique doux de films secs photosensibles épais a été mise au point au moyen d'un équipement de nano-impression, pour permettre un dépôt uniforme et précis sur des substrats fragiles ou de faible taille. En outre, nous avons développé un procédé simple et totalement planaire pour la fabrication du MOEMS et optimisé un procédé de dépôt par jets d'encre pour l'intégration finale des microlentilles, avec la possibilité de choisir la distance focale la plus adaptée à la fin du process. La caractérisation des microsystèmes que nous avons réalisés a conduit à l'obtention de déplacements mécaniques de 8µm pour seulement 12.5mW appliqués, ce qui constitue une validation de nos résultats de modélisation. Enfin, des premiers résultats de focalisation dynamique du faisceau VCSELs sont présentés. / This thesis deals with the study and the fabrication of a novel type of polymer MOEMS (Micro Optical Electrical Mechanical Systems) to achieve passive or active beam shaping of Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs). To improve the photonic integration of these compact laser sources in optical communication and detection systems (sensors, biomedical analysis), we designed a polymer-based optical microsystem that is suitable with a post-processing integration on VCSELs. Its operation principle is based on the out-of-plane displacement of a suspended SU-8 membrane including a polymer refractive microlens at its surface. Thanks to electro-thermal actuation, the vertical displacement of the membrane allows to dynamically modify the microlens-source distance and leads to a vertical shift of the laser beam waist position. MOEMS actuation power and reliability were optimized owing to a comprehensive tri-dimensional thermo-electro-mechanical model that takes into account SU-8 material properties and precise geometry of the device. Technological steps necessary for the collective fabrication of such MOEMS on VCSELs arrays were also developed. In particular, we report on a new photoresist film transfer method we developed to achieve a highly uniform fabrication of high aspect ratio MOEMS on small-sized or fragile samples such as GaAs-based VCSELs wafers. This method that we call "soft thermal printing" is based on the use of a thermal nano-imprint set-up. Moreover, a simple and planar process for MOEMS fabrication was successfully tested. A dedicated inkjet printing process for drop-on-demand deposition of the microlens on the membrane center was also developed. Finally, the fabricated MOEMS were characterized. A vertical displacement as high as 8µm was observed for only 12.5mW applied, in good agreement with our 3D modeling results and first results on 850nm VCSEL dynamic beam focusing were obtained, demonstrating the interest of our approach.

Hinder och åtgärder för ökatanvändning av BIM i byggbranschen / Challenges and actions for increased use of BIM inthe construction industry

Moffed, Shahad, Khayoon, Hiba January 2023 (has links)
The construction industry faces common challenges in managing project information andcommunication, with a lack of communication costing the industry up to 60 billion SEKannually. To address these issues and improve efficiency, the industry has begunimplementing a digital approach, exemplified by Building Information Modelling (BIM). The purpose of this study is to enhance understanding of the use of digital tools (BIM) intoday's construction projects, specifically focusing on the design, construction, andmanagement phases, with an emphasis on Building Information Modelling (BIM). The study aims to specify the difficulties encountered in BIM usage and identify measuresthat can facilitate its implementation in construction projects. These goals are achievedthrough interviewing BIM coordinators, designers, architects, and facility managers,examining their work process and challenges related to the implementation of BIM inconstruction projects. Furthermore, the study analyzes the educational aspect forconstruction technology students. The results indicate that students have different perspectives on BIM, which may be dueto their basic education and lack of experience. It is important for students to obtain amore comprehensive understanding of BIM and the associated digital tools during theireducation to adapt to 3D modeling in their professional lives. The study proposesmeasures to enhance education, providing future professionals with a betterunderstanding of BIM and 3D design. Finally, the results demonstrate that BIM is valuable for the construction industry, withbenefits such as efficiency, cost reduction, and improved collaboration. Currently, 3Dmodeling is the most common level of BIM usage, while the 4D and 5D approaches thatoffer time and cost dimensions are less common. Many stakeholders have not yet fullyutilized BIM's full potential due to lack of knowledge, licenses, and educational needs inthese areas. / Aktörer i byggbranschen står inför gemensamma utmaningar gällande hantering avprojektinformation och kommunikation. Brister på kommunikation kostar byggbranschenupp till 60 miljarder SEK årligen. För att lösa dessa problem och förbättra effektivitetenhar branschen börjat implementera digitala arbetssätt där Byggnads InformationsModellering (BIM) är ett exempel. BIM används för att samla in, samordna ochkommunicera information digitalt genom att koppla information till en gemensam modell, vilket ger möjlighet till att undvika fel och effektivisera processerna inom ett byggprojekt. Syftet med studien är att öka förståelsen för användningen av digitala verktyg inomdagens byggprojekt, under projekterings-, produktions- och förvaltningskedet. Studienavser också att belysa faktorer som påverkar användningen av digitala verktyg, medsärskilt fokus på BIM. Studiens mål är att specificera de svårigheter som uppstår vid användningen av BIM, och att identifiera åtgärder som kan underlätta implementeringen av BIM i byggprojekt. Dessutom undersöks vikten av att integrera digitalisering och BIM i utbildningen avstudenter inom byggteknik. Målet uppfylls genom att intervjua BIM-samordnare, projektörer, konstruktörer, arkitekter och förvaltare, och undersöka deras arbetsprocesseroch utmaningar vid implementeringen av BIM, samt genom att analyserautbildningsaspekten för studenter inom byggteknik. Resultatet visar att studenter inom byggteknik har olika syn på BIM, vilket kan bero påolika grundläggande utbildning och brist på erfarenhet. Det är viktigt att studenternaerhåller en mer omfattande förståelse för BIM och de tillhörande digitala verktygen undersin utbildning för att kunna anpassa sig till 3D-projektering i yrkeslivet. Slutligen visar resultatet att BIM är värdefull för byggbranschen, med fördelar someffektivitet, kostnadsminskning och förbättrat samarbete. Idag är 3D-modellering den vanligaste nivån för användning av BIM, medan arbetssätten 4D och 5D, som erbjudertids- och kostnadsdimensioner, är mindre vanliga. Många aktörer har ännu inte utnyttjatBIMs fulla potential på grund av brist på kunskap och licenser samt att det finnsutbildningsbehov inom just dessa.

Modélisation de scènes urbaines à partir de données aériennes / Urban scene modeling from airborne data

Verdie, Yannick 15 October 2013 (has links)
L'analyse et la reconstruction automatique de scène urbaine 3D est un problème fondamental dans le domaine de la vision par ordinateur et du traitement numérique de la géométrie. Cette thèse présente des méthodologies pour résoudre le problème complexe de la reconstruction d'éléments urbains en 3D à partir de données aériennes Lidar ou bien de maillages générés par imagerie Multi-View Stereo (MVS). Nos approches génèrent une représentation précise et compacte sous la forme d'un maillage 3D comportant une sémantique de l'espace urbain. Deux étapes sont nécessaires ; une identification des différents éléments de la scène urbaine, et une modélisation des éléments sous la forme d'un maillage 3D. Le Chapitre 2 présente deux méthodes de classifications des éléments urbains en classes d'intérêts permettant d'obtenir une compréhension approfondie de la scène urbaine, et d'élaborer différentes stratégies de reconstruction suivant le type d'éléments urbains. Cette idée, consistant à insérer à la fois une information sémantique et géométrique dans les scènes urbaines, est présentée en détails et validée à travers des expériences. Le Chapitre 3 présente une approche pour détecter la 'Végétation' incluses dans des données Lidar reposant sur les processus ponctuels marqués, combinée avec une nouvelle méthode d'optimisation. Le Chapitre 4 décrit à la fois une approche de maillage 3D pour les 'Bâtiments' à partir de données Lidar et de données MVS. Des expériences sur des structures urbaines larges et complexes montrent les bonnes performances de nos systèmes. / Analysis and 3D reconstruction of urban scenes from physical measurements is a fundamental problem in computer vision and geometry processing. Within the last decades, an important demand arises for automatic methods generating urban scenes representations. This thesis investigates the design of pipelines for solving the complex problem of reconstructing 3D urban elements from either aerial Lidar data or Multi-View Stereo (MVS) meshes. Our approaches generate accurate and compact mesh representations enriched with urban-related semantic labeling.In urban scene reconstruction, two important steps are necessary: an identification of the different elements of the scenes, and a representation of these elements with 3D meshes. Chapter 2 presents two classification methods which yield to a segmentation of the scene into semantic classes of interests. The beneath is twofold. First, this brings awareness of the scene for better understanding. Second, deferent reconstruction strategies are adopted for each type of urban elements. Our idea of inserting both semantical and structural information within urban scenes is discussed and validated through experiments. In Chapter 3, a top-down approach to detect 'Vegetation' elements from Lidar data is proposed using Marked Point Processes and a novel optimization method. In Chapter 4, bottom-up approaches are presented reconstructing 'Building' elements from Lidar data and from MVS meshes. Experiments on complex urban structures illustrate the robustness and scalability of our systems.

3D laser scanning as a tool for Viking Age studies

Neiß (Neiss), Michael, Sabrina B., Sholts, Wärmländer, Sebastian K.T.S. January 2013 (has links)
Three-dimensional (3D) laser scanners are becoming increasingly more affordable and user-friendly, making 3D-modeling tools more widely available to researchers in various countries and disciplines. In archaeology, 3D-modeling has the particular advantages of facilitating the documentation and analysis of objects that are fragile, rare, and often difficult to access. We have previously shown that 3D-modeling is a highly useful tool for shape analysis of archaeological bone material, due to the high measurement accuracy inherent in the latest generation of 3D laser scanners (Sholts et al. 2010; 2011). In this work, we explore the utility of 3D-modeling as a tool for Viking Age artefact analysis. To test the usefulness of 3D-modeling when analyzing artefacts with a very complex morphology, we chose highly ornate Viking Age baroque shaped brooches as study objects. These baroque shaped brooches constitute a group of dress ornaments mainly encountered in eastern Viking Age Scandinavia. Due to their large cast and/or attached bosses they obtain an almost baroque appearance, hence their name (cf. Jansson 1984: p. 81). They appear in two major versions, i.e. circular or equal armed, and in two kinds of material, i.e. silver- and copper-based alloys. Because of the position of bronze brooches in burial contexts, it appears they were used to fasten the cape or shawl in the female dress (cf. Jansson 1984: p. 75ff., Aagård 1984: p. 96ff.; Neiß 2006, figs. 3, 4; Capelle 1962: p. 106). For the present work a recently excavated brooch from Denmark was analyzed, together with three Russian brooches with nearly iconic status in the field of Viking Age studies. In the three case studies, we investigated possible uses of 3D-modeling for artefact analysis, artefact reconstruction, and tool mark and motif analysis. Exploring the usefulness of 3D-modeling for these purposes allowed us to draw conclusions regarding how 3D-analysis can be best incorporated into future artefact analysis. In addition, the case studies allowed us to gain new insights about the baroque shaped brooches and their uses. / <p>Forskningsfinansiärer: Helge Ax:son Johnsons stiftelse, Svenska institutet (Visby-programmet), Kungliga vitterhets historie och antikvitets akademin (Montelius minnesfond); Svenska fornminnesforeningen</p> / 3D-laserskanning som verktyg vid vikingatidsstudier

Towards deep unsupervised inverse graphics

Parent-Lévesque, Jérôme 12 1900 (has links)
Un objectif de longue date dans le domaine de la vision par ordinateur est de déduire le contenu 3D d’une scène à partir d’une seule photo, une tâche connue sous le nom d’inverse graphics. L’apprentissage automatique a, dans les dernières années, permis à de nombreuses approches de faire de grands progrès vers la résolution de ce problème. Cependant, la plupart de ces approches requièrent des données de supervision 3D qui sont coûteuses et parfois impossible à obtenir, ce qui limite les capacités d’apprentissage de telles œuvres. Dans ce travail, nous explorons l’architecture des méthodes d’inverse graphics non-supervisées et proposons deux méthodes basées sur des représentations 3D et algorithmes de rendus différentiables distincts: les surfels ainsi qu’une nouvelle représentation basée sur Voronoï. Dans la première méthode basée sur les surfels, nous montrons que, bien qu’efficace pour maintenir la cohérence visuelle, la production de surfels à l’aide d’une carte de profondeur apprise entraîne des ambiguïtés car la relation entre la carte de profondeur et le rendu n’est pas bijective. Dans notre deuxième méthode, nous introduisons une nouvelle représentation 3D basée sur les diagrammes de Voronoï qui modélise des objets/scènes à la fois explicitement et implicitement, combinant ainsi les avantages des deux approches. Nous montrons comment cette représentation peut être utilisée à la fois dans un contexte supervisé et non-supervisé et discutons de ses avantages par rapport aux représentations 3D traditionnelles / A long standing goal of computer vision is to infer the underlying 3D content in a scene from a single photograph, a task known as inverse graphics. Machine learning has, in recent years, enabled many approaches to make great progress towards solving this problem. However, most approaches rely on 3D supervision data which is expensive and sometimes impossible to obtain and therefore limits the learning capabilities of such work. In this work, we explore the deep unsupervised inverse graphics training pipeline and propose two methods based on distinct 3D representations and associated differentiable rendering algorithms: namely surfels and a novel Voronoi-based representation. In the first method based on surfels, we show that, while effective at maintaining view-consistency, producing view-dependent surfels using a learned depth map results in ambiguities as the mapping between depth map and rendering is non-bijective. In our second method, we introduce a novel 3D representation based on Voronoi diagrams which models objects/scenes both explicitly and implicitly simultaneously, thereby combining the benefits of both. We show how this representation can be used in both a supervised and unsupervised context and discuss its advantages compared to traditional 3D representations.

Jämförelse av punktmoln genererade med terrester laserskanner och drönar-baserad Structure-from-Motion fotogrammetri : En studie om osäkerhet och kvalitet vid detaljmätning och 3D-modellering / Comparison of Point Clouds Generated by Terrestrial Laser Scanning and Structure-from-Motion Photogrammetry with UAVs : A study on uncertainty and quality in detailed measurement and 3D modeling

Nyberg, Emil, Wolski, Alexander January 2024 (has links)
Fotogrammetri är en viktig metod för att skapa 3D-representationer av terräng och strukturer, men utmaningar kvarstår när det gäller noggrannheten på grund av faktorer som bildkvalitet, kamerakalibrering och positionsdata. Användningen av drönare för byggnadsdetaljmätning möjliggör snabb och kostnadseffektiv datainsamling, men noggrannheten kan påverkas av bildkvalitet och skuggning. Avhandlingen syftar till att jämföra noggrannheten och kvaliteten hos punktmoln genererade med två olika tekniker: terrester laserskanning (TLS) och struktur-från-rörelse (SfM) fotogrammetri med drönare. För att testa båda metodernas osäkerhet och noggrannhet vid detaljmätning av bostäder. Genom att utföra mätningar på en villa har data samlats in med både TLS och drönare utrustade med 48 MP kamera, samt georeferering med markstöd (GCP). SfM-punktmoln bearbetades med Agisoft Metashape. Jämförelser gjordes mellan SfM- och TLS-punktmoln avseende täckning, lägesskillnad och lägesosäkerhet. Genom att följa riktlinjer från HMK - Terrester Laserskanning och tillämpa HMK Standardnivå 3 säkerställs hög noggrannhet i mätningarna. Kontroll av lägesosäkerhet av båda punktmolnen resulterade i en lägesosäkerhet som understeg toleranser satta enligt HMK - Terrester laserskanner Standardnivå 3.  Kontrollen av lägesosäkerheten visade att kvadratiska medelfelet(RMSE) i plan och höjd var 0.011m respektive 0.007m för TLS-punktmolnet, och 0.02m respektive 0.015m för drönar-SfM-punktmolnet, vilket låg under toleransen enligt HMK- Terrester Detaljmätning 2021. Resultaten tyder på att Structure-from-Motion fotogrammetri med drönare kan generera punktmoln med god detaljrikedom, inte lika noggrann som med terrester laserskanner på sin lägsta inställning. TLS uppvisade mindre osäkerhet enligt kontrollen av lägesosäkerhet, ungefär en halvering av RMSE i både plan och höjd. I studien framgick det att TLS presterar sämre vid svåråtkomliga ytor med skymd sikt och ogynnsamma infallsvinklar, där effekten blir en lägre punkttäthet för punktmolnet. Vid gynnsamma förhållanden erbjuder TLS en högre noggrannhet och detaljnivå jämfört med SfM punktmoln. Enligt M3C2 punktmoln analys, med TLS punktmolnet som referens, antydde det att SfM punktmolnet genererade största felen vid takfot samt vid buskage. De större felen vid takfot tyder på att SfM presterar sämre gällande detaljnivå och fel vid buskageområdet varierar inte från det som dokumenterats om fotogrammetriska fel vid mappning av vegetation. SfM kan utföra en effektiv datainsamling för större samt svåråtkomliga ytor men kräver lång bearbetningstid med diverse hjälpmedel för att uppnå hög noggrannhet. TLS kräver istället en lång datainsamlingsprocess men kan generera ett detaljerat och noggrant punktmoln direkt utan långa bearbetningsprocesser. Val av metod styrs därmed baserat på specifika projektkrav. Långsiktiga implikationer inkluderar förbättrad effektivitet och säkerhet inom bygg- och anläggningsprojekt, samt potentialen för kostnadsbesparingar och mer detaljerade inspektioner. / Photogrammetry is a crucial method for creating 3D representations of terrain and structures, yet challenges remain regarding accuracy due to factors such as image quality, camera calibration, and positional data. The use of drones for building detail measurements enables rapid and cost-effective data collection, but accuracy can be affected by image quality and shading. This thesis aims to compare the accuracy and quality of point clouds generated using two different techniques: terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetry with drones. The objective is to test the uncertainty and accuracy of both methods in residential surveying. Data collection was performed on a villa using both TLS and a drone equipped with a 48 MP camera, along with georeferencing with ground control points (GCP). SfM point clouds were processed with Agisoft Metashape. Comparisons were made between SfM and TLS point clouds in terms of coverage, positional difference, and positional uncertainty. By following guidelines from HMK - Terrester laserskanning 2021 and applying HMK Standard Level 3, high measurement accuracy was ensured. Positional uncertainty checks of both point clouds resulted in positional uncertainty within tolerances set by HMK - Terrestrial Laser Scanning Standard Level 3. The positional uncertainty, with a sample of 41 points showed that the root mean square error (RMSE) in plane and height was 0.011m and 0.007m respectively for the TLS point cloud, and 0.02m and 0.015m for the drone-SfM point cloud, both within the tolerance according to HMK - Terrestrial Detail Measurement 2021. The results suggest that Structure-from-Motion photogrammetry with drones can generate point clouds with good detail, although not as accurate as terrestrial laser scanning at its lowest setting. TLS showed less uncertainty according to the positional uncertainty check, with approximately half the RMSE in both plan and height. The study found that TLS performs worse on difficult-to-access surfaces with obstructed views and unfavorable angles, resulting in lower point cloud density. Under favorable conditions, TLS offers higher accuracy and detail compared to SfM point clouds. According to M3C2 point cloud analysis, using the TLS point cloud as a reference, SfM point clouds showed the largest errors at eaves and shrubbery. The larger errors at eaves indicate that SfM performs worse in terms of detail level, and errors in the shrubbery area are consistent with documented photogrammetric errors in vegetation mapping. SfM can effectively collect data for larger and difficult-to-access areas but requires extensive processing time with various aids to achieve high accuracy. Conversely, TLS requires a long data collection process but can generate a detailed and accurate point cloud directly without lengthy processing. The choice of method thus depends on specific project requirements. Long-term implications include improved efficiency and safety in construction and infrastructure projects, as well as potential cost savings and more detailed inspections.
