Abstract | The limitations of estimating structure from either stereo or motion alone can be addressed by the use of stereo image sequences; however, many existing techniques for processing stereo sequences rely on having accurate feature correspondences initially. We present an iterative feature matching and shape reconstruction algorithm. The proposed method simultaneously resolves matching ambiguities by multiple hypothesis testing and develops an incrementally accurate and dense representation of the reconstructed object. This approach uses minimal domain specific constraints and can be easily generalised. The method's potential is demonstrated in a space vision application. |
