A Single-perspective Novel Panoramic View from Radially Distorted Non-central Images

چکیده
In this paper, we propose an image-based technique for panoramic novelview generation using three uncalibrated wide-angle images as its input. State of the art in novel view generation presumes the calibration and removal of radial distortion or any other deformation resulting from the geometry of a non-central camera. We propose a method which replaces this calibration with the assumption that the epipole corresponding to the novel viewpoint is at the center of radial distortion and that it is known.

A Unifying Theory for Central Panoramic Systems and Practical Applications
Omnidirectional vision systems can provide panoramic alertness in surveillance, improve navigational capabilities, and produce panoramic images for multimedia. Catadioptric realizations of omnidirectional vision combine reflective surfaces and lenses. A particular class of them, the central panoramic systems, preserve the uniqueness of the projection viewpoint. In fact, every central projection...
متن کاملARToolkit Applied to Panoramic Vision for Robot Navigation
A vision based navigation system is presented for determining a mobile robot’s position and orientation using panoramic imagery. An omni-directional image sensor mounted on the robot is useful in obtaining a Æ field of view, permitting navigational markers from all sides to be viewed simultaneously. In this novel approach, navigational markers are recognized using software from the popular ARTo...
متن کاملA Practical Toolbox for Calibrating Omnidirectional Cameras
An omnidirectional camera is a vision system providing a 360° panoramic view of the scene. Such an enhanced field of view can be achieved by either using catadioptric systems, which opportunely combine mirrors and conventional cameras, or employing purely dioptric fisheye lenses. Omnidirectional cameras can be classified into two classes, central and noncentral, depending on whether they satisf...
متن کاملGeneration of Perspective and Panoramic Video from Omnidirectional Video
Existing software systems for visual exploration are limited in their capabilities in that they are only applicable to static omnidirectional images. We present a software system that has the capability to generate at video rate (30 Hz), a large number of perspective and panoramic video streams from a single omnidirectional video input, using no more than a PC. This permits a remote user to cre...
متن کاملCombined Bundle Adjustment of Panoramic and Central Perspective Images
Based on a strict mathematical model for rotating line cameras developed at the Institute of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing of the Dresden University of Technology, a self-calibrating bundle adjustment of panoramic image data was implemented. This model has been extended by the option to involve central perspective images of a conventional camera. A panoramic bundle adjustment is a suitable ...
