Based on the principle of parallax of binocular visual system, three-dimensional of target is acquired by a lot of images. One identification technique for three-dimensional (3D) target is proposed in this paper. The characteristic information of target is extracted and reconstructed after images which are collected in OpenCV are pre-processed; Finally, based on Support Vector Machine package, the...
The purpose of this research is to show how common computer vision techniques can be implemented in such a way that it is possible to automate the process of analytical photogram-metry. This work develops a workflow that generates a sparse three-dimensional point cloud from a bundle of images using SIFT, RANSAC, and a sparse bundle adjustment along with basic photogrammetric methods. It then goes...
In this paper, an automatic 3D model extraction from aerial images is proposed. The system is based on the H.264 video encoder that is used for 3D information extraction and compression. In order to obtain a disparity map from the sequence of aerial images, motion vectors received from the H.264 encoder motion estimation algorithm are used. The main drawback using motion estimation for disparity generation...
It is now the case that well-performing flash LIDAR focal plane array devices are commercially available. Such devices give us the ability to measure and record frame-registered 3D point cloud sequences at video frame rates. For many 3D computer vision applications this allows the processes of structure from motion or multi-view stereo reconstruction to be circumvented. This allows us to construct...
To keep an intelligent vehicle on the lane in the vision-based navigation, an image processing technology is proposed to detect the lane of a structured road. A way of lane marking recognition arithmetic being acclimated to structuring road is put forward. It makes use of Soble morphology gradient algorithm to coordinate with Hough transform, and we used straight line to reconstruct 2D lane. As the...
This paper presents an outlier removing method for improving the performance of automatic 3D reconstruction of scene using video sequences acquired with an uncalibrated camera. Firstly, the feature points in the region of interest are tracked in video sequences via KLT tracker. Secondly, we applied a vector direction analysis (VDA) strategy in our system for outlier's removal, which can efficiently...
This paper considers metric 3D reconstruction with hierarchical merging. We first describe pairwise matching of images for spanning tree construction. The epipolar constraint is imposed on two related vertices. We then present a partition method to group the images into duplets or triplets for partial reconstruction. A robust hierarchical scheme that merges partial reconstruction together is used...
Creating a realistic three-dimensional human face model has been one of the most difficult problems in the fields of computer graphics and computer vision. A method witch to build three-dimensional human face model basic on a photo of two-dimensional single front face is proposed in this paper. Firstly, facial organ distribution is identified from the photo by face recognition. After that, the standard...
In this paper, we propose a new approach to find a large number of reliable point features between high distorted stereo fisheye images, which is very valuable in many applications, such as image-based metrology, geometry estimation and 3D reconstruction. In first step the affine invariant regions are matched by classical approaches then distinctive points within the region can be matched based on...
In this paper, we introduce an improved version of DAISY descriptor algorithm, which is used for high-quality image keypoint matching. Since DAISY descriptor algorithm has many prominent advantages but lacks the ability of handling large in-plane rotation, we thus construct our Rotation-Invariant DAISY descriptor to effectively settle this shortcoming. The matching results of our scheme can be also...
In this paper, a new planning approach for automatic reconstruction of unknown 3D objects with occlusion is proposed. During reconstruction process, the contour of occlusion is predicted reasonably firstly. Secondly, the optimal spatial position of the vision system would be determined where the vision system can obtain the maximum visible area. Finally, the reconstruction processes of the real objects...
3D model reconstruction is an important issue in computer graphics, computer vision and virtual reality. This paper presents a new method in rapid reconstruction of detailed 3D surface models from a small number, e.g. 3-4, of 2D silhouettes of objects taken from different views. A statistical shape model is used to fit a set of landmarks points, which are automatically created from the 2D silhouettes,...
AAOur aim is the coding of image with XML text, the decoding of such descriptors and the reconstruction of the corresponding shapes. The image is assumed segmented into regions and each one is considered as shape. We present firstly a review of the textual format (LWDOS: Language for Writing Descriptors of Outline Shapes) proposed in the literature to write the geometrical description of parts and...
A stereo reconstruction algorithm is proposed, which combines techniques of local edge detection, stereo matching and binocular vision. Firstly, the left and right images of the object are taken by calibrated binocular cameras. Then, in rectified matching images, the closed local edge is formed surrounding each pixel by Prewitt edge operator in order to construct an adaptive window, in which cost...
Environmental change is a growing international concern, calling for the regular monitoring, studying and preserving of detailed information about the evolution of underwater ecosystems. For example, fragile coral reefs are exposed to various sources of hazards and potential destruction, and need close observation. Computer vision offers promising technologies to build 3D models of an environment...
3D reconstruction with uncalibrated image sequences is an important technique in computer vision. A lot of methods have been proposed to acquire 3D object structure and camera models. However, these methods of reconstruction always need corresponding points in more than two images. In this paper, a practical method of 3D reconstruction based on uncalibrated image sequence is proposed. This method...

The proposed image observation model integrates the non-rigid motion and imaging formation process into a unified super-resolution frame. To facilitate the motion estimation, Lucas-Kanade optical flow is chosen for non-rigid motion estimation...
Driving assistance and safety systems are based on data processing of different sensor information. The environment of a vehicle is detected by these sensing elements for accident avoidance or reduction of the accident severity. Due to package size and cost reasons, only selective sensors are used for standard-production of a vehicle. These integrated sensors have to fulfill several tasks at once...
