Direct 3D Information Determination in an Uncalibrated Stereovision System by Using Evolutionary Algorithms

2011

This paper proposes a 3D panoramic shape reconstruction method based on an uncalibrated stereovision system (USS) composed of five cameras circularly located around the object to be analysed. First, some interesting points are detected from markers placed on the object such that they are visible by two successive cameras of the USS. These points are then matched on both images acquired by a couple of successive cameras. This process is repeated for all the couples of cameras. Second, by using an evolutionary algorithm, the depth values of the different interesting points are calculated. A comparison with a traditional method based on calibrated cameras validates the accuracy of 3D informati…

Towards a real-time 3D shape reconstruction using a structured light system

2005

This paper deals with 3D shape reconstruction using a structured light system (SLS) which projects a matrix of laser rays onto the scene to be analyzed. The intrinsic problem of such a system is the correspondence problem solving, which in this particular case amounts to matching up the imaged spots and the originating laser rays. In this paper, we propose a method for automatically obtaining configurations of the system (COS) (i.e. the relative positions of the camera, laser projector, and measuring scene) that permit to achieve a direct and unambiguous correspondence. After, we propose a splitting cell algorithm, which efficiently performs a real-time correspondence procedure. Experimenta…

Shape Reconstruction of Metallic Objects by Artificial Vision

1997

Quality control in industrial applications has greatly benefited from the development of tools like artificial vision. The artificial vision approach of quality control has the advantage of being able to perform both non-destructive and contactless controls as well as to work mostly in real time. However, in the case of non planar objects to be controlled, dimensional control may become hard to realize. Indeed, due to the bidimensional aspect of the images, a loss of information is unavoidable. Consequently, obtaining depth information from a planar image is not obvious. Most of the existing methods use several cameras1 or several light sources2, this leads to an increase in the processing …
