  1. 3D Model Reconstruction with Voodoo Camera Tracker Jae Hyuk Kwak 2009 Fall CS682 George Mason Univ.

  2. Contents • What is Voodoo Camera Tracker • How does it work? • What is Video Trace • “My Video Tracer” • Goal of my project • How does it work? • Discussion • Lessons learned

  3. Voodoo Camera Tracker • Voodoo Camera Tracker is developedby Digi-lab, which belongs to Univ. Hannover, Germany. • http://www.digilab.uni-hannover.de • It calculates the position of camera in 3D coordination from sequence of image files, which is equals to a video file. • It also calculate the position of corner points in 3D coordination. • Works for two modes: rotation and free move. • Source code is NOT open.

  4. How does Voodoo work? • 1. Find corner points for each frame. • 2. Track each corner point on prior frame to the next frame. • 3. Calculate the position of camera and the corner point in 3D coordination. Voodoo requires sequential image files not a video file. We can convert it by Virtual Dub, which is open source.

  5. How does Voodoo work? Find corners Track corners

  6. Video Trace • Video Trace: SIGGRAPH 2007 • Based on data from Voodoo Camera Tracker. • Interact with users at real time. • User pick points and connect the points. • Calculate the position of the points in 3D. • Reconstruct the 3D model. • Source code is NOT open. • Difference: Voodoo focuses on Camera while Video Trace is interested in Corners.

  7. Goal of my project • Reconstruct 3D model. • Load up data from Voodoo Camera Tracker. • Interact with users in real time. • Pick points in 2D. • Adjust the position of the points. • Connect points. • Generate 3D data onto XML format, X3D

  8. Personal Challenging Points • Using OpenCV • Using Voodoo Camera Tracker. • Using Eclipse CDT. • Using Google Test for TDD approach. • Building GUI framework with DOM level 3 specification from W3C. • Using X3D as output format.

  9. How does it work? • Voodoo analyze a video file and generate data. • Load up Data: • Voodoo Camera information • Voodoo Feature Point information • Sequential image files. • Interact with users: • Pick points. • Adjust the position of the points • Connect the points • Store the reconstructed 3D model data

  10. Data from Voodoo Voodoo analyze it.

  11. User Interface • Tools • Draw points. • Draw lines. • Erase points. • Move points. • Navigation: • Go to start • Go to previous • Play • Go to next • Go to the last • Save X3D Green points: Corners from Voodoo

  12. Depth information • The first depth information is from nearest feature point. • User can adjust the position from different angles. • Green points: • feature points from Voodoo. • Blue points: • points from User • Red points: • calculated Projection

  13. Difference from Video Trace • Video Trace estimates the depth information by minimizing the distance between a surface and feature points inside of the surface. • It means user have to close a shape before moving to other frames. • My approach is simpler, because the depth information is given to each point rather than each surface.

  14. Software detail • Size of binary file : 37M • Number of source files : 194 files (*.cpp, *.h) • Number of Test Cases : 197 cases. • Lines of code : 11,896 lines • Developing time : 7 weeks, Alone. • Source code is open on GoogleCode: • svn checkout http://mysimplevideotrace.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ mysimplevideotrace

  15. Result

  16. Discussion • Generating enough number of feature points is a very painful and time consuming task. • Moving camera introduces blurring noise., which Voodoo is weak at. • There is no strong reasonto use move clip.Several static imagesmay be enough; RealViz.

  17. Lessons learned • User Interface of Voodoo is full of jargon. • Video Tracer still requires lots of manual tasks. • 3D reconstruction is not yet practical. • Building GUI system is non-trivial.
