Using Many Cameras as One
نویسنده
چکیده
We illustrate how to consider a network of cameras as a single generalized camera in a framework proposed by Nayar [13]. We derive the discrete structure from motion equations for generalized cameras, and illustrate the corollaries to the epi-polar geometry. This formal mechanism allows one to use a network of cameras as if they were a single imaging device, even when they do not share a common center of projection. Furthermore, an analysis of structure from motion algorithms for this imaging model gives constraints on the optimal design of panoramic imaging systems constructed from multiple cameras.

People re-identification is one of the most important and fundamental processes in video surveillance systems. The accuracy and efficiency of this task influence the effectiveness of the subsequent processes. Event detection and behavior analysis are instances of such subsequent processes that are classified in semantic levels. In people re-identification, having an image or video of an individ...
متن کاملAn ANP-based Model for Location of Fixed Speed Cameras
Speeding is a major cause of traffic accidents and is estimated to be the cause of about 40% of fatalities in road accidents. Speed is a major accident risk factor and affects both rate and severity of traffic accidents. This importance has led to universal use of intelligent control systems for maintaining road safety by enforcing speed regulations. In this study, a modeling is carried out by ...
متن کاملImage Based Routing for Image Based Rendering
Recent research has shown that capturing a scene using several cameras has many advantages over traditional single viewpoint or stereo capture. Here, we focus on multicamera systems using Internet Protocol (IP) as the mode of communication. As these networks of cameras grow in size, the problem of handling the immense amount of data they are capable of producing becomes an important problem. Ou...
متن کاملEvaluation of iterative reconstruction method and attenuation correction on brain dopamine transporter SPECT using anthropomorphic striatal phantom
Objective(s): The aim of this study was to determine the optimal reconstruction parameters for iterative reconstruction in different devices and collimators for dopamine transporter (DaT) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The results were compared between filtered back projection (FBP) and different attenuation correction (AC) methods.Methods: An anthropomorphic striatal phant...
متن کاملComputation of Epipolar Geometry and Trifocal Tensor from Spherical Images
We formulate multiple view geometry for 3D reconstruction using a spherical-camera model as a normalized camera model expressing all central cameras. In the sense of geometry, a central camera is a collection of all rays incident to one point. Generally speaking, most cameras that are widely-used in the field of computer vision and robot vision are designed to fall into the central camera. This...
