چکیده

Generic camera odometry can be performed using two images of the same plane, such as the ground plane even in the case of non central cameras. It is possible to recover both the angle and rotation center describing a generic planar motion on the ground plane if the center is visible in both images. We present an algorithm to recover these two parameters from an initial set of correspondences and, furthermore, to estimate the motion flow related to any point on the ground plane. In this situation the motion flows are given by a set of “concentric” closed curves around the rotation center. By considering two subsequent ground plane motions and their related motion flows, we show that it is possible to perform a rectification of the plane up to a scale factor. We provide experimental results which validate our approach.

Analysis of planar-motion segmentation using affine fundamental matrix

Various computer-vision applications involve estimation of multiple motions from images of dynamic scenes. The exact nature of 3D-object motions and the camera parameters are often not known a priori and therefore, the most general motion model (fundamental matrix) is applied. Although the estimation of fundamental matrix and its use for motion segmentation are established, the conditions for s...

Structure and Motion from Two Uncalibrated Views Using Points on Planes

This paper is about the problem of structure and motion recovery from two views of a rigid scene. Especially, we deal with the case of scenes containing planes, i.e. there are sets of coplanar points. Coplanarity is a strong constraint for both structure recovery and motion estimation. Most existing works do only exploit one of the two aspects, or, if both, then in a sub-optimal manner. A typic...

Homography-Based Positioning and Planar Motion Recovery

Planar motion is an important and frequently occurring situation in mobile robotics applications. This thesis concerns estimation of ego-motion and pose of a single downwards oriented camera under the assumptions of planar motion and known internal camera parameters. The so called essential matrix (or its uncalibrated counterpart, the fundamental matrix) is frequently used in computer vision ap...

Reconstruction of Outdoor Sculptures from Silhouettes under Approximate Circular Motion of an Uncalibrated Hand-Held Camera

This paper presents a novel technique for reconstructing an outdoor sculpture from an uncalibrated image sequence acquired around it using a hand-held camera. The technique introduced here uses only the silhouettes of the sculpture for both motion estimation and model reconstruction, and no corner detection nor matching is necessary. This is very important as most sculptures are composed of smo...

Structure and Motion Estimation

This tutorial is concerned with the structure and motion estimation from the sequence of images taken with an uncalibrated affine camera. This problem was first addressed by Koenderink and van Doorn [1]. We will address the following problems: • Calibrated and uncalibrated affine camera models; • Tomasi and Kanade factorization method; • Sequential estimation of the structure and motion paramet...
