Line reconstruction using prior knowledge in single non-central view

International audience; Line projections in non-central systems contain more geometric information than in central systems. The four degrees of freedom of the 3D line are mapped to the line-image and the 3D line can be theoretically recovered from 4 projecting rays (i.e. line-image points) from a single non-central view. In practice, extraction of line-images is consid- erably more difficult and the resulting reconstruction is imprecise and sensitive to noise. In this paper we present a minimal solution to recover the geometry of the 3D line from only three line-image points when the line is parallel to a given plane. A second minimal solution allows to recover the 3D line from two points w…
