Fusion of Combined Stereo and Focus Series for Depth Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Estimating depth maps is an important step towards 3D reconstruction. In order to compensate the insufficiencies that different image based methods impose, a fusion of multiple information sources for depth estimation is proposed. This article concentrates on obtaining depth information by fusing combined stereo and focus series, which are efficiently gained using a multivariate camera array.

Fusion kombinierter Stereo- und Fokusserien zur 3D-Rekonstruktion
Combined stereo and focus image series are fused for obtaining robust 3D information. The combination of depth from stereo and depth from (de)focus leads to good results also when dealing with scenes presenting periodical or weak structure. For analyzing the problem in ray optics, a signal model is presented which describes the imaging of a camera array taking into consideration a defocussed pr...
متن کاملA Combined Approach for Estimating Patchlets from PMD Depth Images and Stereo Intensity Images
Real-time active 3D range cameras based on time-of-flight technology using the Photonic Mixer Device (PMD) can be considered as a complementary technique for stereo-vision based depth estimation. Since those systems directly yield 3D measurements, they can also be used for initializing vision based approaches, especially in highly dynamic environments. Fusion of PMD depth images with passive in...
متن کاملDisparity fusion using depth and stereo cameras for accurate stereo correspondence
Three-dimensional content (3D) creation has received a lot of attention due to numerous successes of 3D entertainment. Accurate stereo correspondence is necessary for efficient 3D content creation. In this paper, we propose a disparity map estimation method based on stereo correspondence. The proposed system utilizes depth and stereo camera sets. While the stereo set carries out disparity estim...
متن کاملA New High Resolution Depth Map Estimation System Using Stereo Vision and Kinect Depth Sensing
Depth map estimation is an active and long standing problem in image/video processing and computer vision. Conventional depth estimation algorithms which rely on stereo/multi-view vision or depth sensing devices alone are limited by complicated scenes or imperfections of the depth sensing devices. On the other hand, the depth maps obtained from the stereo/multi-view vision and depth sensing dev...
متن کاملFusion of stereo vision and Time-Of-Flight imaging for improved 3D estimation
This paper suggests an approach in fusing two 3D estimation techniques: stereo vision and Time-Of-Flight (TOF) imaging. By mapping the TOF-depth measurements to stereo disparities, the correspondence between the images from a fast TOF-camera and standard high resolution camera pair are found, so the TOF depth measurements can be linked to the image pairs. In the same framework, a method is deve...
