ICP IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD BASED ON ITERATIVE CLOSEST POINT ICP TECHNIQUE

摘要

In various embodiments of an image processing method and apparatus, first and second point clouds representing respective images of a scene/object from different viewpoints are obtained. Extracted features points from the first point cloud are matched with extracted feature points from the second point cloud by using depth-based weighting as a part of an iterative closest point (ICP) initiation process. The first and second point clouds are then further ICP-processed by using results of the initiation process to generate at least one coordinate-transformed point cloud.
