Motion - Stereo Integration for Depth Estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Depth extraction with a mobile stereo system is described. The stereo setup is precalibrated, but the system extracts its own motion. Emphasis lies on the integration of the motion and stereo cues. It is guided by the relative confidence that the system has in these cues. This weighing is fine-grained in that it is determined for every pixel at every iteration. Reliable information spreads fast at the expense of less reliable data, both in terms of spatial communication and in terms of exchange between cues. The resulting system can handle large displacements, depth discontinuities and occlusions. Experimental results corroborate the viability of the approach.

متن کاملMotion and structure from multiple cues; image motion, shading flow, and stereo disparity
We investigate the recovery of 3-D motion and structure from the stereo images of a stationary environment. A Kalman filter-based framework is proposed for the reconstruction of 3-D structure from multiple visual cues, through the integration of image motion and stereo disparity with the shading flow that is induced by the rotational motion of the source. A common scenario involves the coupled ...

Three-dimensional scene reconstruction is an important tool in many applications varying from computer graphics to mobile robot navigation. In this paper, we focus on the robotics application, where the goal is to estimate the 3D rigid motion of a mobile robot and to reconstruct a dense three-dimensional scene representation. The reconstruction problem can be subdivided into a number of subprob...
متن کاملIntegration of shape from shading and stereo
-Stereo algorithms suffer from the lack of local surface texture due to smoothness of depth constraint, or local miss-matches in disparity estimates. Thus, most stereo methods only provide a coarse depth map which can be associated with a low pass image of the depth map. On the other hand, shape from shading algorithms generally produce better estimates of local surface areas, but some of them ...
متن کامل3D Pose Tracking with Linear Depth and Brightness Constraints
This paper explores the direct motion estimation problem assuming that video-rate depth information is available, from either stereo cameras or other sensors. We use these depth measurements in the traditional linear brightness constraint equations, and we introduce a new depth constraint equation. As a result, estimation of certain types of motion, such as translation in depth and rotations ou...
