Vanishing Point Detection for Architectural Photogrammetry

چکیده

A priori object information like parallelism and perpendicularity can be very useful for 3D-reconstruction, especially in architectural photogrammetry. With digital close-range imagery parallelism of object lines can be exploited by applying automatic vanishing point detection. This image analysis technique allows the detection of parallel object lines and leads to their spatial orientation in the camera system. The latter can be used for 3D-reconstruction as well as for the determination of the exterior orientation parameters of the image involved. A priori object information in the form of angles between object lines (like perpendicularity) can improve vanishing point detection considerably. The paper gives a short overview of research in vanishing point detection that has a long history in the computer vision community. A new method for vanishing point detection that is based on rigorous statistical testing and perpendicularity constraints is presented. First results of the application of this method to imagery of buildings are discussed.

A New Method for Vanishing Points Detection in 3d Reconstruction from a Single View

From a single view that contains a three dimensional scene is possible to obtain substantial information about the object and even its partial reconstruction. This analysis can provide, in the case of Photogrammetry, measures of the original object, and in the case of Computer Vision, useful information to 3D reconstruction. Nevertheless, to carry out this analysis, a critical part of the proce...

Detection of Vanishing Points Using Hough Transform for Single View 3D Reconstruction

Single View Reconstruction (SVR) is a technique to reconstruct three-dimensional scenes or objects of interest from a single image. Unlike traditional (multi-view) close-range photogrammetry, SVR does not require camera parameters for obtaining 3D coordinates of the targets. A common approach for SVR is to establish the 3D metrology based on vanishing points from a single image with perspective...

A New Approach for Vanishing Line Estimation

In photogrammetry and computer vision, retrieving object space information from images remains a fundamental task and numerous efforts have been dedicated to this specific topic. It is revealed in recent research papers that vanishing points and vanishing lines provide clues about the structures of the object space. A variety of approaches have been proposed either for single-camera systems or ...

A man-made environment is characterized by a lot of parallel lines and a lot of orthogonal edges. In this article, a new method for detecting the three mutual orthogonal directions of such an environment is presented. Since realtime performance is not necessary for architectural application, like building reconstruction, a computationally more intensive approach was chosen. On the other hand, o...
