(1) Pushbroom stereo mosaics for 3D dynamic scenes (2) Natural stereo matching primitives for 3D urban scenes and moving targets (2) Content-based 3D mosaic rep for accurate 3D and motion Objectives Expected Contribution to Research Area (1) Rapid panoramic stereo mosaic construction (2) Accurate 3D reconstruction and parametric rep. (3) Robust moving target extraction and estimation An efficient and more accurate representationfor large scale scenes;A new natural matching approachfor both urban structures and moving targets
Portion of the depth map of ground and buildings; moving target are “outliers”” (small white areas) Detected moving targets – moving vehicles are identified by a 2D search in matching (from blue to red) Full Depth Map of mosaics from 1000+ frames. Sharp depth boundaries are obtained for further target recognition and motion detection Key Results Accurate 3D reconstruction and motion detection on mosaics from real world video
