SOCRATES: A Stereo Camera Trap for Monitoring of Biodiversity. (arXiv:2209.09070v2 [cs.CV] UPDATED)

The development and application of modern technology is an essential basis
for the efficient monitoring of species in natural habitats and landscapes to
trace the development of ecosystems, species communities, and populations, and
to analyze reasons of changes. For estimating animal abundance using methods
such as camera trap distance sampling, spatial information of natural habitats
in terms of 3D (three-dimensional) measurements is crucial. Additionally, 3D
information improves the accuracy of animal detection using camera trapping.
This study presents a novel …
