METHODS, STORAGE MEDIA, AND SYSTEMS FOR SELECTING A PAIR OF CONSISTENT REAL-WORLD CAMERA POSES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240338879 titled 'METHODS, STORAGE MEDIA, AND SYSTEMS FOR SELECTING A PAIR OF CONSISTENT REAL-WORLD CAMERA POSES

The patent application describes methods, storage media, and systems for selecting a pair of consistent real-world camera poses for 3D reconstruction.

  • The process involves capturing multiple images of an object from various camera poses and analyzing them to select a consistent pair of camera poses.
  • Selection is based on calculating perturbation errors and reprojection errors from 2D points or line segments in the images.
  • A weight is calculated for each camera pose pair based on these errors, and the pair with the highest weight, indicating the highest consistency and stability, is chosen.

Potential Applications: - 3D modeling and reconstruction in various industries such as architecture, archaeology, and entertainment. - Augmented reality and virtual reality applications for immersive experiences. - Robotics for navigation and object recognition.

Problems Solved: - Ensures accurate and consistent 3D reconstructions by selecting the most stable camera poses. - Reduces errors and inconsistencies in the reconstruction process. - Improves the quality of virtual models and simulations.

Benefits: - Enhanced accuracy in 3D reconstruction. - Time and cost savings in the modeling process. - Improved visualization and analysis of objects and environments.
