چکیده

In their paper "Role of optics in the accuracy of depth-from-defocus systems" [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A24, 967 (2007)] the authors Blayvas, Kimmel, and Rivlin discuss the effect of optics on the depth reconstruction accuracy. To this end they applied an approach in Fourier space. An alternative derivation of their result in the spatial domain, based on geometrical optics, is presented and compared with their outcome. A better agreement with experimental data is achieved if some unclarities are refined.

Role of optics in the accuracy of depth-from-defocus systems.

The depth-from-focus-defocus approach to 3D reconstruction is based on the fact that objects closer to or farther from the object in focus appear blurred, and the amount of blur increases with the distance from the object in focus. An important characteristic of any depth-from-defocus system is the depth reconstruction accuracy. Several 3D reconstruction algorithms have been proposed, and the i...

Real-Time Focus Range Sensor - Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on

Structures of dynamic scenes can only be recovered using a real-time range sensor. Depth from defocus offers an effective solution to fast and dense range estimation. However, accurate depth estimation requires theoretical and practical solutions to a variety of problems including recovery of textureless surfaces, precise blur estimation, and magnification variations caused by defocusing. Both ...

Analysis of Magnification in Depth from Defocus

In depth from defocus (DFD), when images are captured with different camera parameters, a relative magnification is induced between them. Image warping is a simpler solution to account for magnification than seemingly more accurate optical approaches. This work is an investigation into the effects of magnification on the accuracy of DFD. We comment on issues regarding scaling effect on relative...

Minimal operator set for passive depth from defocus

A fundamental problem in depth from defocus is the measurement of relative defocus between images. We propose a class of broadband operators tha t , when used together, provide invariance to scene texture and produce accurate and dense depth maps. Since the operators are broadband, a small number of them are sufficient for depth estimation of scenes with complex textural properties. Experiments...

Depth from diffracted rotation.

The accuracy of depth estimation based on defocus effects has been essentially limited by the depth of field of the imaging system. We show that depth estimation can be improved significantly relative to classical methods by exploiting three-dimensional diffraction effects. We formulate the problem by using information theory analysis and present, to the best of our knowledge, a new paradigm fo...
