Real-time Panoramic Mosaics and Augmented Reality

چکیده
This paper investigates estimating exact imaging transformations accurately, reliably and efficiently. It is shown that in certain common computer vision situations the transformation required can be defined by a small number of parameters. Search is only required over these parameters, and consequently the search algorithms to estimate the transformation can be run at frame rate, without sacrificing robustness or accuracy. Performance is superior to often used approximations to these transformations. Two examples are illustrated: planar panoramic mosaicing, and augmented reality. Both applications run at frame rate on standard desktop machines, such as an SGI Indy or a PC.

Dynamic Video Mosaicing and Augmented Reality for Subsea Inspection and Monitoring
This paper reports a powerful technique for building panoramic mosaics from video sequences automatically. No information about the camera motion nor on its optical parameters are necessary. Mosaics can be built even in the presence of objects moving in front of the target scene (dynamic mosaicing), which are deleted by motion analysis. The technique also makes augmented reality possible, that ...
متن کاملPanoramic mosaics by manifold projection
As the field of view of a picture is much smaller than our own visual field of view, it is common to paste together several pictures to create a panoramic mosaic having a larger field of view. Images with a wider field of view can be generated by using fish-eye lens, or panoramic mosaics can be created by special devices which rotate around the camera’s optical center (Quicktime VR, Surround Vi...
متن کاملVirtual Reality Motion Parallax with the Facebook Surround-360
Interest in acquiring and viewing natural scenes in full 360degree immersion has led to the development of camera rigs which capture images for 360-degree stereo rendering. Most such platforms capture a scene for viewing from a single vantagepoint and do not incorporate motion parallax. Methods for scene acquisition which do support motion parallax, such as concentric mosaics or free viewpoint ...
