dc.description.abstract | In computer vision, camera egomotion is typically solved with visual odometry techniques that relies on feature extraction from a sequence of images and computation of the optical flow. This, however, often requires a point-to-point correspondence between two consecutive frames which can often be costly to compute and its varying accuracy greatly affects the quality of estimated motion. Attempts have been made to bypass the difficulties originated from the correspondence problem by adopting line features and fusing other sensors (event camera, IMU), many of which still heavily rely on feature detectors. If the camera observes a straight line as it moves, the image of such line is sweeping a surface, this is a ruled surface and analyzing its shapes gives information about the egomotion. This research presents a novel algorithm to estimate 3D camera egomotion from scenes represented by ruled surfaces. Constraining the egomotion with inertia measurements from an onboard IMU sensor, the dimensionality of the solution space is greatly reduced. | en_US |
