Real Time Disparity Map Estimation on the Cell Processor
نویسنده
چکیده
Stereo vision attempts to regain depth information from a pair of 2D images. This information can be used in a wide range of areas including robotics, augmented reality, 3D TV and movie post production. This paper will describe the development of a stereo algorithm on the cell processor. The implementation will be evaluated for both quality and speed, demonstrating the effectiveness of the cell processor as an image processing platform. The restrictions imposed by the platform and issues which are faced when developing computer vision applications on the cell will be discussed and the methods taken to implement the algorithm will be described.

متن کاملTowards Real-time Neuronal Disparity Map Estimation
We propose in this paper a new approach for fast disparity map estimation from pair of stereo images. The disparity map computing is divided into two main steps. The first one deals with computing the initial disparity map using a neuronal DSI (Disparity Space Image) method. Whereas, the second one is a simple and fast method to refine the initial disparity map. New strategies and improvements ...

We present an advanced disparity estimation algorithm developed for real-time immersive teleconferencing. In order to improve the disparity maps in the case of occlusions a segmentation-driven disparity post processing is applied. We introduce a novel approach for a segmentation algorithm, which uses the advantages of HSV colour space without the need of an explicit colour space transformation....

We propose in this paper a new method for real-time dense disparity map computing using a stereo pair of rectified images. Based on the neural network and Disparity Space Image (DSI) data structure, the disparity map computing consists of two main steps: initial disparity map estimation by combining the neuronal network and the DSI structure, and its refinement. Four improvements are introduced...
متن کاملAn efficient disparity map format for real time interpolation in multi viewpoint stereoscopic video systems
In this paper we present an efficient disparity map format that has been developed in the European ACTS project PANORAMA for stereoscopic multi viewpoint video systems. This new map, the chain map, has several advantages compared to the usual disparity vector fields. It is a very efficient, single bidirectional map, with explicit indication of occlusions and normal/contracted objects, there are...
