3D Computer Vision

Efficient Methods and Applications

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This indispensable text introduces the foundations of three-dimensional computer vision and describes recent contributions to the field. Fully revised and updated, this much-anticipated new edition reviews a range of triangulation-based methods, including linear and bundle adjustment based approaches to scene reconstruction and camera calibration, stereo vision, point cloud segmentation, and pose estimation of rigid, articulated, and flexible objects. Also covered are intensity-based techniques that evaluate the pixel grey values in the image to infer three-dimensional scene structure, and point spread function based approaches that exploit the effect of the optical system. The text shows how methods which integrate these concepts are able to increase reconstruction accuracy and robustness, describing applications in industrial quality inspection and metrology, human-robot interaction, and remote sensing.

Rezensionen

"I do recommend serious consideration of this book for a one-semester advanced graduate course on methods for 3D scene reconstruction, based on the first five chapters. For graduate students pursuing PhDs in the field of computer vision, this is a book they won't want to miss." (Zhaoqiang Lai, ACM Computing Reviews, Mar 8 2013, Review # CR141001)
