Dense Depth Maps by Active Color Illumination and Image Pyramids

چکیده
An efficient hierarchical technique is presented for obtaining dense stereo correspondence using a color image pyramid. We show that matching results of high quality are obtained when using the hierarchical chromatic Block Matching algorithm. Furthermore, we present some results for parallel implementations of the algorithm. Most stereo matching algorithms can not compute correct dense depth maps in homogenous image regions. We show that using an active color illumination will considerably improve the quality of the matching results. Results are presented for synthetic and for real images.

Color stereo vision using hierarchical block matching and active color illumination
Stereo is a well-known technique for obtaining depth information from digital images. Nevertheless, this technique still suffers from a lack in accuracy and/or long computation time needed to match stereo images. A new hierarchical algorithm using an image pyramid for obtaining dense depth maps from color stereo images is presented. We show that matching results of high quality are obtained whe...
متن کاملBackground Subtraction Based on Color and Depth Using Active Sensors
Depth information has been used in computer vision for a wide variety of tasks. Since active range sensors are currently available at low cost, high-quality depth maps can be used as relevant input for many applications. Background subtraction and video segmentation algorithms can be improved by fusing depth and color inputs, which are complementary and allow one to solve many classic color seg...
متن کاملMultimodal Segmentation of Dense Depth Maps and Associated Color Information
An integrated segmentation approach for color images and depth maps is proposed. The 3D pointclouds are characterized by normal vectors and then grouped into planar, concave or convex faces. The empty regions in the depth map are filled by segments of the associated color image. In the experimental part two types of depth maps are analysed: generated by the MS-Kinect sensor or by a stereo-pair ...
متن کاملRobust Dense Depth Acquisition Using 2-D De Bruijn Structured Light
We present a new dense depth acquisition method using 2-D De Bruijn structured light, which is robust to various textures and is able to reconstruct dense depth maps of moving and deforming objects. A 2-D binary De Bruijn pattern is emitted to the target object by an off-the-shelf projector. Fast dynamic programming based stereo matching is performed on images taken from two different views. Th...
متن کامل3 D Recovery Using Calibrated Active
In this contribution we describe a system to generate dense depth maps from image sequences recorded from a camera mounted on a robot. Two color images of the sequence are treated as a stereo pair. A color edge detector is applied, lines are segmented from the edge images, and approximations as sequences of straight lines and circular arcs are computed. An initial depth map results from lines o...
