چکیده
Video analysis and mixed reality (MR) systems, which integrate the virtual world and the real world, are important topics of multimedia research. In this paper, we propose an efficient 3D city construction system from omni video data as a practical application of MR systems. To develop this system, two main methods are proposed for analyzing omni video data. The first one is omniEPI analysis, which makes it possible to obtain 3D information from omni video data robustly and efficiently. The second method is omniPVI analysis, which makes it possible to obtain not only front images of the buildings but also side images of them. To demonstrate the effectiveness of these methods, we present some experimental results and the prototype systems using outdoor environment omni video data.

Construction of a 3D city map using Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Omni-directional Image
This research aims to obtain 3D information by using spatio-temporal analysis of omni images for outdoor navigation and map-making in the intelligent transportation system (ITS) application. Two types of omnidirectional cameras are employed to make a spatio-temporal volume, which is a sequence of omni images stacked in the spatio-temporal space. For the spatio-temporal analysis of an omni image...
متن کاملCamera Arrangement in Visual 3D Systems using Iso-disparity Model to Enhance Depth Estimation Accuracy
In this paper we address the problem of automatic arrangement of cameras in a 3D system to enhance the performance of depth acquisition procedure. Lacking ground truth or a priori information, a measure of uncertainty is required to assess the quality of reconstruction. The mathematical model of iso-disparity surfaces provides an efficient way to estimate the depth estimation uncertainty which ...

متن کاملConstruction of 3 D Environment Model by Using Omni - Directional Camera – Estimation of Camera Motion with a Feature Flow Model –
Map information is important for path planning and self-localization when mobile robots accomplish autonomous tasks. In unknown environments, mobile robots should generate an environment map by themselves. Then, we propose a method for construction of the 3D environment model by a mobile robot. The method is based on structure from motion. We use a single omni-directional camera to measure the ...
متن کاملA New 3D Imaging System Using a Portable Two-Camera Omni-Imaging Device for Construction and Browsing of Human-Reachable Environments
As an improvement on existing street view systems which cannot be moved to certain environments to acquire images, a new 3D imaging system using a portable two-camera omni-imaging device is proposed. The device can be carried on one’s back and moved on foot to any indoor and outdoor scene spot to acquire omni-images which cover the entire spherical view of the scene with an overlapping image ba...
