Matching free-form surfaces

Free form surface matching using motion consistency

In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm to evaluate the possible point matches established by the traditional ICP algorithm in the process of matching two overlapping free form surfaces represented as two sets of unorganised points. While the existing methods mainly use feature matching to establish or evaluate possible correspondences between the surfaces to be matched, our novel approach ...

Surfacing Signatures: An Orientation Independent Free-Form Surface Representation Scheme for the Purpose of Objects Registration and Matching

ÐThis paper introduces a new free-form surface representation scheme for the purpose of fast and accurate registration and matching. Accurate registration of surfaces is a common task in computer vision. The proposed representation scheme captures the surface curvature information (seen from certain points) and produces images, called asurface signatures,o at these points. Matching signatures o...

Free-Form Surface Registration using Surface Signatures

This paper introduces a new free-form surface representation scheme for the purpose of fast and accurate registration and matching. Accurate registration of surfaces is a common task in computer vision. The proposed representation scheme captures the surface curvature information, seen from certain points and produces images, called surface signatures, at these points. Matching signatures of di...

Free-Form Surface Matching for Surface Inspection

A High-Accuracy Passive 3D Measurement System Using Phase-Based Image Matching

This paper presents a high-accuracy 3D (three-dimensional) measurement system using multi-camera passive stereo vision to reconstruct 3D surfaces of free form objects. The proposed system is based on an efficient stereo correspondence technique, which consists of (i) coarse-to-fine correspondence search, and (ii) outlier detection and correction, both employing phase-based image matching. The p...
