Hybrid camera pose estimation combining square fiducials localisation technique and orthogonal iteration algorithm

چکیده
Camera pose estimation from video images is a fundamental problem in machine vision and Augmented Reality (AR) systems. Most developed solutions are either linear for both n points and n lines, or iterative depending on nonlinear optimization of some geometric constraints. In this paper, we first survey several existing methods and compare their performances in an AR context. Then, we present a new linear algorithm which is based on square fiducials localisation technique to give a closed-form solution to the pose estimation problem, free of any initialization. We propose also an hybrid technique which combines an iterative method, in fact the orthogonal iteration (OI) algorithm, with our own closed form solution. An evaluation of the methods has shown that this hybrid pose estimation technique is accurate and robust. Numerical experiments from real data are given comparing the performances of our hybrid method with several iterative techniques, and demonstrating the efficiency of our approach.

Camera Pose Estimation in Unknown Environments using a Sequence of Wide-Baseline Monocular Images
In this paper, a feature-based technique for the camera pose estimation in a sequence of wide-baseline images has been proposed. Camera pose estimation is an important issue in many computer vision and robotics applications, such as, augmented reality and visual SLAM. The proposed method can track captured images taken by hand-held camera in room-sized workspaces with maximum scene depth of 3-4...

متن کامل3-D head pose estimation from video by nonlinear stochastic particle filtering
Current methods for automatic facial expression recognition assume images are collected in controlled environments in which the subjects deliberately face the camera. Since people often nod or turn their heads, automatic recognition of spontaneous facial behavior requires methods for handling out-of-image-plane head rotations. We approached this problem by developing a front-end system that joi...
متن کاملA New Pose Estimation Algorithm Using a Perspective-Ray-Based Scaled Orthographic Projection with Iteration
Pose estimation aims at measuring the position and orientation of a calibrated camera using known image features. The pinhole model is the dominant camera model in this field. However, the imaging precision of this model is not accurate enough for an advanced pose estimation algorithm. In this paper, a new camera model, called incident ray tracking model, is introduced. More importantly, an adv...
