On-Line Rectification of Sport Sequences with Moving Cameras
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article proposes a global approach to the rectification of sport sequences, to estimate the mapping from the video images to the terrain in the ground plane without using position sensors on the TV camera. Our strategy relies on three complementary techniques: (1) initial homography estimation using line-feature matching, (2) homography estimation with line-feature tracking, and (3) incremental homography estimation through point-feature tracking. Together, they allow continuous homography estimation over time, even during periods where the video does not contain sufficient line features to determine the homography from scratch. We illustrate the complementarity of the 3 techniques on a set of challenging examples.

Robust incremental rectification of sport video sequences
We describe an important element of an automatic sport analysis system. This element continuously estimates the image-to-model homography from the video stream of a single camera. Here, we focus on the incremental image-to-image updating of the homography matrix, which greatly facilitates real-time operation. This updating relies on the automatic tracking of interest lines and points and on the...
متن کاملIncremental Rectification of Sports Fields in Video Streams with Application to Soccer
We describe a complete system for image rectification in sport video sequences. Relying both on geometrical properties of the field elements and on photogrammetric data, we compute an estimate of the field-to-image homography either incrementally – by inter-image data processing – or “from scratch” when direct image-model correspondences are possible. Examples are given in a soccer context.

متن کاملPixel-variant Local Homography for Fisheye Stereo Rectification Minimizing Resampling Distortion
Large field-of-view fisheye lens cameras have attracted more and more researchers’ attention in the field of robotics. However, there does not exist a convenient off-the-shelf stereo rectification approach which can be applied directly to fisheye stereo rig. One obvious drawback of existing methods is that the resampling distortion (which is defined as the loss of pixels due to under-sampling a...
