Main Abstract:
We present a novel Structure from Motion pipeline that is capable of reconstructing accurate camera poses for panorama-style video capture without prior camera intrinsic calibration. While panorama-style capture is common and convenient, previous reconstruction methods fail to obtain accurate reconstructions due to the rotation-dominant motion and small baseline between views. Our method is built on the assumption that the camera motion approximately corresponds to motion on a sphere, and we introduce three novel relative pose methods to estimate the fundamental matrix and camera distortion for spherical motion. These solvers are efficient and robust, and provide an excellent initialization for bundle adjustment. A soft prior on the camera poses is used to discourage large deviations from the spherical motion assumption when performing bundle adjustment, which allows cameras to remain properly constrained for optimization in the absence of well-triangulated 3D points. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method we evaluate our approach on both synthetic and real-world data, and demonstrate that camera poses are accurate enough for multiview stereo.

[1]: The fundamental matrix is a basic tool in the analysis of scenes taken with two uncalibrated cameras, and the eight-point algorithm is a frequently cited method for computing the fundamental matrix from a set of eight or more point matches. It has the advantage of simplicity of implementation. The prevailing view is, however, that it is extremely susceptible to noise and hence virtually useless for most purposes. This paper challenges that view, by showing that by preceding the algorithm with a very simple normalization (translation and scaling) of the coordinates of the matched points, results are obtained comparable with the best iterative algorithms. This improved performance is justified by theory and verified by extensive experiments on real images.

[2]: We describe a special case of structure from motion where the camera rotates on a sphere. The camera’s optical axis lies perpendicular to the sphere’s surface. In this case, the camera’s pose is minimally represented by three rotation parameters. From analysis of the epipolar geometry we derive a novel and efficient solution for the essential matrix relating two images, requiring only three point correspondences in the minimal case. We apply this solver in a structure-from-motion pipeline that aggregates pairwise relations by rotation averaging followed by bundle adjustment with an inverse depth parameterization. Our methods enable scene modeling with an outward-facing camera and object scanning with an inward-facing camera.

[3]: From the Publisher: A basic problem in computer vision is to understand the structure of a real world scene given several images of it. Recent major developments in the theory and practice of scene reconstruction are described in detail in a unified framework. The book covers the geometric principles and how to represent objects algebraically so they can be computed and applied. The authors provide comprehensive background material and explain how to apply the methods and implement the algorithms directly.
We build on Ventura's work [2] to design three new solvers for determining the fundamental matrix and calibration when the motion between cameras is constrained to a sphere. Whereas the fundamental matrix for general motion is estimated from 7 [3] or 8-point correspondences [1] , our spherical motions solvers compute the fundamental matrix from as few as 4 point correspondences. We can additionally compute a common radial distortion parameter with 5 or 6 correspondences. These fundamental matrix solvers are integrated into an SfM pipeline suitable for reconstructing panorama-style captures from handheld video sequences. Unlike [2] , our method does not require prior calibration, allowing for more general use, and our system is robust to deviations from spherical motion.
