  1. Announcements • Project 3 extension: Wednesday at noon • Final project proposal extension: Friday at noon • consult with Steve, Rick, and/or Ian now! • Project 2 artifact winners... • Readings • S. M. Seitz and C. R. Dyer, Photorealistic Scene Reconstruction by Voxel Coloring, International Journal of Computer Vision, 35(2), 1999, pp. 151-173. • http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/seitz/papers/ijcv99.pdf

  2. camera 1 camera 1 projector projector camera 2 Active stereo with structured light • Project “structured” light patterns onto the object • simplifies the correspondence problem Li Zhang’s one-shot stereo

  3. Active stereo with structured light

  4. Laser scanning • Optical triangulation • Project a single stripe of laser light • Scan it across the surface of the object • This is a very precise version of structured light scanning • Digital Michelangelo Project • http://graphics.stanford.edu/projects/mich/

  5. 3D cameras Portable 3D laser scanner (this one by Minolta)

  6. Multiview stereo

  7. Choosing the stereo baseline • What’s the optimal baseline? • Too small: large depth error • Too large: difficult search problem all of these points project to the same pair of pixels width of a pixel Large Baseline Small Baseline

  8. The Effect of Baseline on Depth Estimation

  9. 1/z width of a pixel width of a pixel pixel matching score 1/z

  10. Multibaseline Stereo • Basic Approach • Choose a reference view • Use your favorite stereo algorithm BUT • replace two-view SSD with SSD over all baselines • Limitations • Must choose a reference view (bad) • Visibility! • CMU’s 3D Room Video

  11. Known Scene Unknown Scene • Forward Visibility • known scene • Inverse Visibility • known images The visibility problem • Which points are visible in which images?

  12. Volumetric stereo Scene Volume V Input Images (Calibrated) Goal: Determine occupancy, “color” of points in V

  13. Discrete formulation: Voxel Coloring Discretized Scene Volume Input Images (Calibrated) • Goal: Assign RGBA values to voxels in V • photo-consistent with images

  14. True Scene All Scenes (CN3) Photo-Consistent Scenes Complexity and computability Discretized Scene Volume 3 N voxels C colors

  15. Issues • Theoretical Questions • Identify class of all photo-consistent scenes • Practical Questions • How do we compute photo-consistent models?

  16. Voxel coloring solutions • 1. C=2 (shape from silhouettes) • Volume intersection [Baumgart 1974] • For more info: Rapid octree construction from image sequences. R. Szeliski, CVGIP: Image Understanding, 58(1):23-32, July 1993. (this paper is apparently not available online) or • W. Matusik, C. Buehler, R. Raskar, L. McMillan, and S. J. Gortler, Image-Based Visual Hulls, SIGGRAPH 2000 ( pdf 1.6 MB ) • 2. C unconstrained, viewpoint constraints • Voxel coloring algorithm [Seitz & Dyer 97] • 3. General Case • Space carving [Kutulakos & Seitz 98]

  17. Reconstruction from Silhouettes (C = 2) Binary Images • Approach: • Backproject each silhouette • Intersect backprojected volumes

  18. Volume intersection • Reconstruction Contains the True Scene • But is generally not the same • In the limit (all views) get visual hull • Complement of all lines that don’t intersect S

  19. Voxel algorithm for volume intersection • Color voxel black if on silhouette in every image • for M images, N3 voxels • Don’t have to search 2N3 possible scenes! O( ? ),

  20. Properties of Volume Intersection • Pros • Easy to implement, fast • Accelerated via octrees [Szeliski 1993] or interval techniques [Matusik 2000] • Cons • No concavities • Reconstruction is not photo-consistent • Requires identification of silhouettes

  21. Voxel Coloring Solutions • 1. C=2 (silhouettes) • Volume intersection [Baumgart 1974] • 2. C unconstrained, viewpoint constraints • Voxel coloring algorithm [Seitz & Dyer 97] • For more info: http://www.cs.washington.edu/homes/seitz/papers/ijcv99.pdf • 3. General Case • Space carving [Kutulakos & Seitz 98]

  22. 1. Choose voxel • Color if consistent • (standard deviation of pixel • colors below threshold) 2. Project and correlate Voxel Coloring Approach Visibility Problem: in which images is each voxel visible?

  23. Layers Depth Ordering: visit occluders first! Scene Traversal Condition: depth order is the same for all input views

  24. Panoramic Depth Ordering • Cameras oriented in many different directions • Planar depth ordering does not apply

  25. Panoramic Depth Ordering Layers radiate outwards from cameras

  26. Panoramic Layering Layers radiate outwards from cameras

  27. Panoramic Layering Layers radiate outwards from cameras

  28. Inward-Looking • cameras above scene • Outward-Looking • cameras inside scene Compatible Camera Configurations • Depth-Order Constraint • Scene outside convex hull of camera centers

  31. Limitations of Depth Ordering • A view-independent depth order may not exist p q • Need more powerful general-case algorithms • Unconstrained camera positions • Unconstrained scene geometry/topology

  47. Level sets vs. space carving • Advantages of level sets • optimizes consistency with images + smoothness term • excellent results for smooth things • does not require as many images • Advantages of space carving • much simpler to implement • runs faster (orders of magnitude) • works better for thin structures, discontinuities • For more info on level set stereo: • Renaud Keriven’s page: • http://cermics.enpc.fr/~keriven/stereo.html
