Extrinsic Camera Parameter Recovery from Multiple Image Sequences Captured by an Omni-Directional Multi-camera System

چکیده
Recently, many types of omni-directional cameras have been developed and attracted much attention in a number of different fields. Especially, the multi-camera type of omni-directional camera has advantages of high-resolution and almost uniform resolution for any direction of view. In this paper, an extrinsic camera parameter recovery method for a moving omni-directional multi-camera system (OMS) is proposed. First, we discuss a perspective n-point (PnP) problem for an OMS, and then describe a practical method for estimating extrinsic camera parameters from multiple image sequences obtained by an OMS. The proposed method is based on using the shape-from-motion and the PnP techniques.

Novel View Telepresence with High-Scalability Using Multi-Casted Omni-Directional Videos
The advent of high-speed network and high performance PCs has prompted research on networked telepresence, which allows a user to see virtualized real scenes in remote places. View-dependent representation, which provides a user with arbitrary view images using an HMD or an immersive display, is especially effective in creating a rich telepresence. The goal of our work is to realize a networked...
متن کاملOmni-directional Multi-baseline Stereo without Similarity Measures
This paper proposes a novel method for estimating depth from long image sequences captured by pre-calibrated moving omni-directional multi-camera system (OMS). Our idea for estimating an omni-directional depth map is very simple; only counting interest points in images is integrated with the framework of conventional multi-baseline stereo. Even by a simple algorithm, depth can be determined wit...

متن کاملToward a Comparative Study of Lane Tracking using Omni-directional and Rectilinear Images for Driver Assistance Systems
With a panoramic view of the scene, a single omnidirectional camera can monitor the interior and exterior of the vehicle simultaneously. Omni-directional cameras have been shown to produce useful data for determining head gaze orientation from within a vehicle. We examine the issues involved in integrating lane-tracking functions using the same omni-directional camera. We present analysis on th...
