3D Reconstruction from Multiple Images

There is an increasing need for geometric 3D models in the movie industry, the games industry, mapping (Street View) and others. Generating these models from a sequence of images is much cheaper than previous techniques (e.g. 3D scanners). These techniques have also been able to take advantage of the developments in digital cameras and the increasing resolution and quality of images they produce along with the large collections of imagery that have been established on the Internet (for example, on Flickr).
