Determination of Ego-Motion from Matched Points

چکیده

We propose an algorithm for the estimation of the motion of a camera moving through a static environment (ie. the ego-motion) from matched points on two images. The algorithm correctly weights the observations by minimising point mis-match distances on the image-plane. Prior knowledge concerning the camera motion may also be included. The algorithm is iterative, but generally converges quickly. Results are both more accurate and more robust than closed-form solutions based on the 8-Point Algorithm [Longuet-Higgins 1981, Faugeras 1987].

Robust ego-motion estimation

This paper aims to develop a simple algorithm for determining the direction of ego-motion of a monocular observer in a static environment. Rather than returning a single direction the algorithm returns a set of motion directions known to contain the true direct tion. Translational motion can be arbitrary. The algorithm is based on one invented by Horn and Weldon [1]. It uses only normal compone...

Real time camera ego - motion compensation and lens undistortion on GPU

This paper describes a GPU implementation for simultaneous camera ego-motion compensation and lens undistortion. The main idea is to transform the image under an ego-motion constraint so that tracked points in the image, that are assumed to come from the ego-motion, maps as close as possible to their average position in time. The lens undistortion is computed simultaneously. We compare the perf...

A Robust Method for Ego-Motion Estimation in Urban Environment Using Stereo Camera

Visual odometry estimates the ego-motion of an agent (e.g., vehicle and robot) using image information and is a key component for autonomous vehicles and robotics. This paper proposes a robust and precise method for estimating the 6-DoF ego-motion, using a stereo rig with optical flow analysis. An objective function fitted with a set of feature points is created by establishing the mathematical...

Visual Odometry based on Transitivity Error Analysis in Disparity Space - A Third-eye Approach

Accurate estimation of ego-motion heavily relies on correct point correspondences in the context of visual odometry. In order to ensure a metric reconstruction of camera motion, we can refer to the 3D structure of the scene. In this paper we present an indicator for evaluating the accuracy of stereo-based 3D point measurements as well as for filtering out low-confidence correspondences for ego-...

A Novel Line Extraction Algorithm using 2D LiDAR for Ego-motion Estimation

The paper proposes a convex hull-based algorithm for rapid line extraction from 2D LiDAR datas. It uses an algorithm to calculate feature points in LiDAR data frames. Geometric features contained in these feature points provide information for subsequent matching. Compared with traditional LiDAR matching algorithms, the algorithm is greatly improved in terms of iterations and matching precision...
