Qi Hu, Jianxin Luo, Guyu Hu, Weiwei Duan, Hui Zhou · Journal of Physics Conference Series · 2018
Structure from motion is a computer vision technique of estimating camera motions and generating 3D models of the object from a sequence of multiple view images. In this paper, we describe the pipeline of structure from motion strategy especially the incremental approach and also introduce some prevalent open source software implemented structure from motion algorithms briefly. The results of our experiment depending on two different datasets show 3D point cloud and camera motions obtained from a 3D reconstruction program developed by applying bundle adjustment from scratch with the use of OpenCV library.
