Stereo disparity image 3D point cloud

In this scenario we wish to compute a dense point cloud from two views taken with the same calibrated camera. Because the intrinsic parameters are known, it is easier to converge towards a valid solution than the entirely uncalibrated scenario.

Because the extrinsic parameters (translation and rotation) between the two views is unknown the scene's structure can only be recovered up to a scale factor. In this example natural features are used to determine the geometric relationship between the two views. The algorithm can be summarized as follows:

  • Load camera calibration and two images
  • Detect, describe, and associate image features
  • Compute camera motion (Essential matrix)
  • Rectify image pair
  • Compute dense stereo disparity
  • Convert into 3D point cloud

Example File:

Concepts:

  • Point feature association
  • Epipolar geometry
  • Rectification
  • Dense stereo processing

 * from which a dense 3D point cloud of the scene can be computed.  For this technique to work the camera's motion
 * needs to be approximately tangential to the direction the camera is pointing.  The code below assumes that the first
 * image is to the left of the second image.
