The Generation of 3-d Models without Camera Calibration
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes how the generation of 3-D models may be achieved from a small number of images. It uses an automatic segmentation technique and a two stage iterative camera calibration and volumetric intersection algorithm to produce a set of 3-D points in the form of a cloud of voxels. From this, a polygonal or B-spline based surface representation of an object can be generated. The B-spline surface representation can be used to implicitly smooth the modelled surface and also assists texture extraction and portability. The technique, which has been developed on a standard work station, is both fast and robust and requires no specialised equipment.

The Generation of 3-d Models of Outdoor Objects from Uncalibrated Still Images
The generation of 3-D models is a fundamental part of computer graphics and often requires many hours of skilled labour or the use of very expensive equipment. With the increasing demand for virtual environments and objects to populate them, convenient 3-D model generation has become a very important problem to be solved. Generating 3-D models of large outdoor structures poses particular proble...
متن کاملAcquisition of 3-D Scenes with a Single Hand Held Camera
We investigate the acquisition of 3-D scenes by a single hand-held camera. The camera is mounted on a special device with four mirrors, enabling stereo capturing of the scene. We will discuss the signal processing tasks involved, camera calibration and correspondence estimation, and show that both of them benefit from the use of the device. Specifically, we will show that the device enables the...
متن کاملCalibration of Depth Camera Arrays
Depth cameras are increasingly used for tasks such as 3-D reconstruction, user pose estimation, and humancomputer interaction. Depth-camera systems comprising multiple depth sensors require careful calibration. In addition to conventional 2-D camera calibration, depth correction for each individual device is necessary. In this paper, we present a new way of solving the multi depth-camera calibr...
متن کاملNonparametric Correction of Distortion 1 Nonparametric Correction of Distortion 1
Previous work on camera calibration, and particularly work on self-calibration, has assumed that the camera is well modeled by an ideal, relatively simple, parametric model. Real camera systems, however, diverge signiicantly from a simple pinhole perspective imaging model. Therefore, parametric calibration models are typically extended to include parameters which model distortions from perspect...
