Two crossing picture of ball and the image scale of circular point is used to determine Throwing thing catadioptric video camera
Technical field
The invention belongs to computer vision field, the picture relating to two ball that a kind of utilization blocks mutually and circular point solves the method for parabolic catadioptric camera intrinsic parameter.
Background technology
The central task of computer vision is understood image exactly, and its final goal makes computing machine have ability by the cognitive three-dimensional environment information of two dimensional image.The geological information that this ability will not only make the perception of machine energy comprise object in the three-dimensional environment of shape, attitude, motion etc., and can be described them, store, Understanding and reasoning.Camera calibration is exactly determine that it is that much computer vision applies requisite step from three dimensions point to the mapping relations its X-Y scheme picture point.In order to determine this mapping process, need the geometry imaging model setting up video camera, the parameter of geometric model is called camera parameters, and camera parameters can be divided into intrinsic parameter and outer parameter two class.Intrinsic parameter describes the imaging geometry characteristic of imaging system, and outer parameter describes imaging system about the direction of world coordinate system and position.Camera calibration can be divided into tradition demarcation, self-calibration and the demarcation based on geometry entity.No matter which kind of scaling method, be all intended to the restriction relation set up between two dimensional image and camera intrinsic parameter, particularly linear restriction relation, this is the target that current camera calibration is pursued, and is also one of focus of current computer vision field research.
Parabolic catadioptric video camera is made up of a parabolic mirror surface and an orthogonal camera, and its visual field is large, is one of focus of panoramic vision area research.Document " Catadioptricself-calibration ", (KangS.B., ProceedingsofIEEEConferenceonComputerVisionandPatternRec ognition, vol.1, pp.201-207,2000.) propose a kind of catadioptric camera self-calibration method, the advantage of these class methods does not need to use calibrating block, and shortcoming to obtain the corresponding point between image.And in computer vision, the method realizing highly effective searching corresponding point is very difficult.Document " Geometricpropertiesofcentralcatadioptriclineimagesandthe irapplicationincalibration ", (BarretoJ.P., AraujoH., IEEETransactionsonPatternAnalysisandMachineIntelligence, vol.27, no.8, pp.1327-1333,2005) have studied the geometric properties of the picture of straight line under central catadiotric video camera, and these character are applied to the demarcation of central catadiotric video camera.Document " Anewlinearalgorithmforcalibratingcentralcatadioptriccame ras ", (WuF., DuanF., HuZ.etal., PatternRecognition, vol.41, no.10, pp.3166-3172,2008) antipodal point is described and to opening up picture point, be derived the relation of a point between the projection looked on ball and its catadioptric picture point in space, use this relation to establish the linear restriction of central catadiotric camera intrinsic parameter, central catadiotric camera intrinsic parameter can be obtained by this linear restriction.Document " CalibrationofcentralcatadioptriccamerasusingaDLT-likeapp roach ", (PuigL., BastanlarY., SturmP., etal.InternationalJournalofComputerVision, vol.93, no.1, pp.101-114, 2011) a kind of scaling method based on Three dimensions control point is proposed, expand by using the coordinate of Veronese mapping pair three-dimensional point and its picture point, based on DLT (direct linear transformation)---similarity method achieves the demarcation of central catadiotric video camera on the basis of expansion coordinate, but these class methods need the position of known three-dimensional point, and easily from image, extract its picture point.
Ball is as a kind of common solid, and its most important advantage is to block without self, the occluding contour of an a ball always circle space viewed from any one direction, and its contour projection can all extract.Because ball has abundant visual geometric characteristic, therefore utilizing ball to carry out camera calibration has become a focus in recent years.Document " Catadioptriccameracalibrationusinggeometricinvariants ", (YingX., HuZ., IEEETransactionsonPatternAnalysisandMachineIntelligence, vol.26, no.10, pp.1260-1271,2004) propose first and utilize ball to demarcate central catadiotric video camera.They demonstrate the picture of ball under the unit ball projection model of central catadiotric video camera for oval, and provide two invariants at the projection quafric curve of the next ball of non degenerate situation.In order to reduce the complexity solved, they propose a kind of substep scaling method, just the method at least needs the projection of 4 balls can complete the demarcation of video camera.But the scaling method that the document proposes is nonlinear, and the complexity of calculating is higher, and this scaling method can only demarcate the part intrinsic parameter of parabolic catadioptric video camera.Document " Identicalprojectivegeometricpropertiesofcentralcatadiopt riclineimagesandsphereimageswithapplicationstocalibratio n ", (YingX., ZhaH., InternationalJournalofComputerVision, vol.78, no.1, pp.89-105,2008) describe picture (MIAC) effect in central catadiotric camera calibration revising absolute conic.They propose two kinds of linear calibration's algorithms by the picture of research ball under central catadiotric video camera with the Analytic Geometry and Algebra relation of MIAC.The conclusion that they draw also is set up for dual form.But the theory in this section of document and scaling method are degenerate for the situation of parabolic catadioptric video camera.Document " Acalibrationmethodforparacatadioptriccamerafromsphereima ges ", (DuanH., WuY., PatternRecognitionLetters, vol.33, no.6, pp.677-684,2012) a kind of utilization is proposed to the linear method opening up ball image scale and determine parabolic catadioptric video camera based on circular point theory.But choose more complicated about the picture of circular point in this section of document.
