Two-frame stereo photography in low-light settings
Kartic Subr, Gwyneth Bradbury, Jan Kautz · 2012
Image-pairs captured from a rig of two, carefully arranged cameras are increasingly used to reconstruct partial 3D information. A crucial step in this reconstruction is the matching of points in the two images that are projections of the same 3D point through each camera. Despite receiving much attention, algorithms to match correspondencing points in two-frame stereo images are both slow, as well as surprisingly fragile. The problem is exacerbated by noise or blur in the input images because of the potential ambiguities they introduce in the matching process.
