3-D Scene Representation as a Collection of Images and Fundamental Matrices
Stéphane Laveau, Olivier D. Faugeras · 1994
: In this report, we address the problem of the prediction of new views of a given scene from existing weakly or fully calibrated views called reference views. Our method does not make use of a three-dimensional model of the scene, but of the existing relations between the images. The new views are represented in the reference views by a viewpoint and a retinal plane, i.e. by four points which can be chosen interactively. From this representation and from the constraints between the images, we derive an algorithm to predict the new views. We discuss the advantages of this method compared to the commonly used scheme : 3-D reconstruction-projection. We show some experimental results with synthetic and real data.
