| Research Abstract |
We have obtained the following research results in this project.
1. 3D Reconstruction from Omnidirectional Videos Captured from the Ground
The objective is to reconstruct outdoor scenes using a shape-from-motion technique from omnidirectional video streams obtained by using the omnidirectional multi-camera system Ladybug. First, we have developed an algorithm for estimating extrinsic camera parameters from omnidirectional videos obtained by using a moving camera system. We have then developed a new multi-baseline stereo algorithm, which is based on counting interest points, for computing a dense depth map. These algorithms have been successfully demonstrated with experiments in real outdoor environments.
2. 3D Reconstruction from HD Videos Captured from the Sky
We have developed a method for acquiring 3D surface data from video streams obtained by using a helicopter. The method here is based on the algorithm mentioned above. The shape-from-motion technique and the multi-baseline stereo alg

orithm are applied to HD video streams for obtaining a dense depth map from the sky.
3. Accurate 3D Measurement Using Laser Rangefinder
The objective is to acquire a textured 3D environment model by accurate 3D measurement using a laser rangefinder. First, we have developed an algorithm for simultaneous registration of multiple range data obtained at different locations and also have developed a method for selecting textures from multiple omnidirectional images. We have then developed a view planning method for efficiently scanning a wide area sequentially. These algorithms and methods have been successfully experimented in our campus.
4. Construction of Textured 3D Scene Model by Integrating Heterogeneous 3D Data
We have developed a 3D active contour model for integrating heterogeneous 3D data obtained above into a unified voxel model representation. This results in the construction of textured 3D outdoor scene models. Experiments have been carried out with an outdoor environment of our campus. Less
