A Specialized Multibaseline Stereo Technique for Obstacle Detection
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a multibaseline stereo technique specially suited to detecting obstacles. A method is described for weakly calibrating a set of multibaseline stereo cameras with high accuracy. This method is then used to tailor the stereo search space to the special case where the world in front of the cameras consists mainly of nearly horizontal planar surfaces (the ground), where we are interested in deviations from those planar surfaces (obstacles). The resulting disparity maps are presented and compared to the output of a traditional stereo algorithm.

Detection of Small Obstacles at Long Range Using Multibaseline Stereo
This paper presents a multibaseline stereo technique specially suited to detecting obstacles. First, we describe traditional multibaseline stereo and explain why it is not suitable for obstacle detection. This analysis leads directly to a suitable method. Then we describe the obstacle detection system that we have built. Finally, we show results from our system for a variety of different obstac...
متن کاملAn Advanced Stereo Vision Based Obstacle Detection with a Robust Shadow Removal Technique
This paper presents a robust method to detect obstacles in stereo images using shadow removal technique and color information. Stereo vision based obstacle detection is an algorithm that aims to detect and compute obstacle depth using stereo matching and disparity map. The proposed advanced method is divided into three phases, the first phase is detecting obstacles and removing shadows, the sec...
متن کاملDiffuse-Specular Separation and Depth Recovery from Image Sequences
Specular reflections present difficulties for many areas of computer vision such as stereo and segmentation. To separate specular and diffuse reflection components, previous approaches generally require accurate segmentation, regionally uniform reflectance or structured lighting. To overcome these limiting assumptions, we propose a method based on color analysis and multibaseline stereo that si...
متن کاملStereo Vision-Based Obstacle Detection for Partially Sighted People
Obstacle avoidance is a major requirement for any technological aid aimed at helping partially sighted (TAPS) people to navigate safely. In this paper, a stereo vision-based algorithm (Ground Plane Obstacle Detection) is extended to detect small obstacles for TAPS using RANSAC dynamic recalibration and Kalman Filtering. Obstacle detection and false alarm are investigated probabilistically. Furt...
متن کاملAn Application for Stereo Vision based Vehicle/Obstacle Detection for Driver Assistance
A stereo vision based vehicle/obstacle detection system has been proposed that generates alarms when vehicles/obstacles are detected in vicinity of near/mid region. Numerous techniques have been applied to detect vehicles/obstacles using a forward facing monocular camera mounted inside a vehicle. This paper presents a methodology for vehicle/obstacle detection using high resolution stereo camer...
